Our next guest wrote about Tommy John's success story, so we can pick his brain a little bit here about what that looks like and what on the good end it shows.

David Adler, Senior Coordinator of Data and Research at MLB, joins us now.

David, how are we doing?

Good, good.

How's it going?

Pretty good over here, man.

We've had you on and discussed this a little bit before, but for anyone who needs a refresher, as Senior Coordinator of Data and Research at MLB, I know you do a lot.
