Dave Dombrowski

I know we're following up on that type of, in his situation.

Probably the only guy I know that needs to have a little bit done is Otto Kemp has to have some things cleaned up in his case.

But other than that, I think that's it.

Dave, will you exercise Alvarado's club option?

We'll wait to make that decision announcement.

We have until five days after the World Series, so we'll wait on that.

Well, we just have to sit down and really make the final decision.

So, I mean, that's really what it comes down to, just not prepared to make that statement yet.

Well, I don't think I mean, in Bryce's case, of course, he's still a quality player, he's still a all star caliber player.

He didn't have an elite season like he has had in the past.

And

I guess we only find out if he becomes the elite or he continues to be good.

I mean, it's not like he's, you know, it's like if you say to me, I look around the league, I was trying to think, Freddie Freeman.

He's a really good player, right?

He still is a good player.

Is he elite like he was before?

Probably not to the same extent.

And so that's nothing, Nick, because

you know, Freddie's a tremendous player.

And that's, to me, is Bryce.
