So it's um it's something that I'll be curious to see if the A's adjust to in in years two and three there in West Sacramento.
But ultimately there's only so much that
could have been done and they're you know, they're not going to go on a
hundreds of million dollars construction project to try to make it more major league like when they're theoretically going to be in Vegas in three years.
It's it's unbelievable.
Yeah, there'll be no hitters this year and they will not be anywhere near as impressive to me as Scooba was yesterday.
This was a guy who was a seventh round pick out of the one D1 school that gave him an offer, was a guy who was, I think, s like 70% foreseen fastballs, topping at ninety-seven or ninety-eight in the minor leagues, and now he has
two distinct fastballs, maybe the best change up in the league, a plus slider, and he's throwing over a hundred miles an hour with elite command.
I mean, this guy is just
Absolutely ridiculous.
He feels
Almost automatic.
He's he's had some weird batting average on ball and play luck that has ruined a couple of starts this year, but in terms of just
Hard contact or looking like he's struggling at all finding the zone.
We haven't seen it since he came back from that major surgery about a year and a half ago.
Just one of the most delightful pitchers in the whole league to us.
Yeah, I mean this was I something about the exact scenario of his start of like thirteen strikeouts, no walks, whatever it was, was no one had done that since Peak Jacob de Gram.
So
I think that says it all right there that we're seeing one of the best left handed pitchers of our generation um pitch for a a really fun upstart team that just has so much electricity around it since their incredible run last year.
And I'm really excited to see what he and the Tigers do for the rest of the season.
