Yeah, there should be some passion.

This doesn't have to be boring.

Yeah, I mean, I think, you know, just consistency is always really important.

So when I think about that, just continuing to approach every at-bat and every pitch with just a better understanding of what's going on and then kind of my barrel approach to the pitch specifically, so...

working different parts of the zone.

I think we take a lot of information from every single season.

I think last year there was a lot of trouble dealing with kind of crossfire lefties, changeups that are kind of on the black, on the outside corner for me.

So just continuing to just kind of groove those lanes and

anticipating when I think they might show up and feel comfortable enough through repetition to kind of attack those pitches better and have better numbers on them.

And then just continuing to reinforce what I do well, the pitches I really kind of love looking for, different parts of the zone that I know I can handle very well.

You know, both just, you know, continuing to practice what I do well and also just taking some information from last year to kind of make those numbers better and just ultimately being a complete player and as consistent as possible.

So, yeah, I mean, listen, it's an everyday effort.

It doesn't stop with the offseason or the start of spring training.

So that process has continued, but I think the focus is there, yeah.

Yeah, I mean, listen, the numbers speak for themselves.

Teams that are going to be playing us have the information as well.

So I'm not saying anything that's not known already by our opposition.

Yeah, you know, this night wasn't here last year, but there definitely was a...

Some energy about obviously making last year better.

This year, I think, you know, we're given an opportunity to go out there and compete with a lot of the same guys.
