Justin Crawford, you're looking to put into there, so into a position there and keep it open.

So, I mean, outfield's a practical because it's the one area that's probably not as strong as some of the other areas with the club, but it was much improved the second half.

I don't know where Bader fits into that.

If he

If he resigns, that changes the picture too.

So, but it's, you know, that that's a logical area that you would look at.

Okay.

Well,

I just talked about the possibility to change in the mix.

So there's a lot of the things that end up going into that at this point.

We have some veterans, but we have some young guys we're going to break in, and we've got some guys in the middle of their career that have done very well for us.

I don't think when you look at the game's different, so you can't really go back and say the historical aspect of it because, of course, free agency didn't exist until the 70s.

And when you start talking about all those other great clubs that were there, the Yankees or the

Dodger club from way back when, they were together forever because they didn't become free agents.

But I think all in all, as you look back at the situation, I think you always have to be cognizant of the age of your players.

We have some players that are in their mid-30s.

You always worry about

a decline when players get up into their mid to upper 30s.

But I will say the game's changed and sports has changed a lot.

quality, premium players that continue to perform at high levels due to so many new things that we've indoctrinated throughout the years.
