Like, you need to test him against the best.

I mean, this is the opportunity.

Right now he's passing every test they're putting in front of him.

The next test will come starting Saturday in Sarasota.

Play him against the Orioles.

Play him a lot.

See how he fares.

And if he continues to pass tests, don't stop him from being on the team.

Yeah, I mean, I think it's going to be somewhat dependent on numbers, but I also think it's going to be a kind of if you know, you know, kind of situation.

You know, I mean, right now, like we're watching a kid that's telling us that he's ready, right?

Like there's there's he's leaving, no doubt.

If this level of performance continues in the games, he's going to be on the team.

so i mean maybe it's numbers but if he smokes balls left and right and winds up hitting 310 like i don't i don't think you can turn that away um you know if it's maybe like 250 270 something like that and the contact isn't as hard and there's maybe you know if it's 50 50 if he leaves it up to chance i'm sure they'd probably rather you know from a business standpoint preserve a year of control but if he's smoking balls left and right like he is down here then i just go with you know you know he deserves to be on the team

Um,

Just because, I mean, he's never played in AAA.

You'd probably just let a decent sample size accrue at that point.

Like, I don't think we'd get into Super 2 territory, but if it's 20 games, I'd probably take the over.

You know, if it was 60, I wouldn't take the over.

I'd take the under there for sure.

But 20, yeah, probably more than 20.
