We talked about the last time I was on, Pedro Grafol was so just concerned about

not revealing anything that Venable on the other side is very transparent.

So you can kind of apply, you can almost think about his moves in advance, which has some drawbacks probably, but also you understand where he's coming from.

And at least there's a logical through line.

Guess the one drawback of Murakami is that he's a lefty and the White Sox faced three lefties and they struggled against lefties, especially just, you know, the fastball command was pretty good for a totally and Bennett, especially just, they were spotting the fastball inside corner up and in relentlessly on righties.

By the time they figured it out, the Red Sox went another course, started using the other side of the plates and just the, they really executed the game plan perfectly and,

And, you know, Murakami is weaker against lefties.

So you don't necessarily expect him to help, but the presence of instant offense, I think, especially after a series where they had no extra base hits, I think makes them welcome.

Even if the handedness with this athletic series, the first two starters will be lefties.

So they have to continue with that, but just having somebody who's another home run threats, um,

Just yeah.

And given that he handled himself respectably against lefties, even if like the average is down a little more strikeouts, they just need all the help they can get.

And I think, you know, Murakami has been champing at the bit to get back into it.

And the White Sox were one game under 500 with them out.

So I think you have to consider that a victory and then hope that Murakami can pick up where he left off.

Yes and no.

Yes, it's a disappointment because they were in first place in July and the Central doesn't look that tough.

So there's an opportunity here that wasn't grabbed.

But I would say that it's a...

pleasure to be disappointed by that.
