And I'm not a World Series or bust guy, but they better get to the postseason this year unless there's a really good reason for them not to.
And I think the way...
that he spoke publicly about the Eric Lauer situation and the fact that he pulled Tyler Heineman out of the game.

I don't think it's come out publicly.

But, like, we got to have β this is a deal.
We got to have an arrangement here.
This is a two-way street.
I got your back, but you got to have mine as well.
And I think that's fair.
And I think he has grown significantly in the role between the white lines and beyond the white lines over the last few years.
And I'm very interested to see β I know you guys talked about it yesterday, what the roster move will be, and even how the playing time is divvied up
Going forward, like there are other conversations we can have beyond just Schneider and Sosa and Pignango, you know, like Jesus Sanchez hasn't hit in several weeks.
Nathan Lucas will be back in 10 days.

win games and get back to the postseason because this is a big expectations, urgency kind of time period in my mind.
Oh, yeah, there's no question.
