Yeah, I mean they're at least a year ahead of schedule, maybe two years ahead of schedule.
And when you have a team like that, you are constantly waiting for the other shoe to drop.
Like people
You know, Mur Murkami was divisive.
Some people expected him to be good.
I don't know if anyone had him as a
immediate nine hundred OPS guy who's handling ninety-five plus mile an hour velocity super well.
I mean that's the thing when guys come over from Japan is question number one is how can he handle velocity?
And Murakami is handling it as well as anybody in the league, regardless of whether or not they played in Japan last year.
Guys like Anthony Kay, they got a pretty modest contract, um
Two years twelve million to come and be a mid rotation guy, he's probably pitched a little bit better than that lately.
Um, Davis Martin has faded a little bit but was really good.
Sean Burke has faded a little bit but hit a really good stretch.
And when teams are ahead of schedule
You think, okay, at some point the regression's gonna come and there's six weeks left for that regression to come.
But there's also the possibility of look, maybe they are just a really good team.
They did just sweep the Tigers and they're in the lead of that division.
Positive run differential.
They might just be good.
How long the potential playoff run will last, we don't know, but they might just be a good team that has made some good moves and is ahead of schedule and is getting better than expected performances up and down that roster.
