And now I got, you know, maybe I want a mild straw to pinch hit or pinch run for somebody.

Now I need a catcher.

So, yeah, I think...

I think three weeks ago you could have an argument about this.

I don't know if he can now.

Yeah, three under, not hitting.

He's hitting.

You know, he mentioned, I think it was to Hazel in spring training, about how big Kirk he had been.

Just tell him, you know, how to get through it, right?

You know, when a veteran guy wants to throw to you and he wants to throw it here and you don't want him to throw it there, how do you kind of have that conversation back and forth?

Have you noticed kind of how it's taken shape with that kind of stuff?

And, you know, Kevin's allowing him to call a game.

You know, he's the one pushing the slider button.

00 to the left of you.

It ain't Kevin doing that.

But I also, I do think the fact that Kevin has come out and

gone it's not that he went out of his way that's not fair because he was asked the question he was asked the question and he you know he said look he trusts him yeah he trusts his strike zone judgment he talked about abs and all that and his and his ability to frame pitches you know kevin's a smart enough guy that if he was lousy at that he would figure out another way how to answer the question yeah i i i would i would go out on a limb and say that he ain't going nowhere

Yeah, I would – I have my suspicions.

I would go out on a limb and say – I have my suspicions.

It would make a lot of sense to not send down a guy that knows how to hit a little.
