I do?
Yeah, you look younger.
I usually don't get that compliment that I look good, so thank you, boys.
Well, Jeff, you know, I think it all depends on the manager.
You know, when I was doing it in the first time doing it in Kansas City, you know, I had Trey Hillman and then Ned Jost came over.
And, you know, Ned had been at it for a while.
So there was, you know, we bounced things off each other.
But, you know...
Ned had a plan what he wanted to do and just executed it, you know.
And then, of course, I went to New York with the Mets, Mendoza, and he'd been around.
He'd been a bench coach for a number of years with the Yankees, so he had a lot of experience doing that.
But there's a little more give and take there.
And then now out here in Anaheim with Kurt Suzuki, who hasn't done it before, there's been a little bit more of it.
But, you know, all three of them are, you know,
were great baseball guys, you know, had played a long time and all that.
And so they're natural.
They're all good baseball guys, and I think they're going to be very successful.
I think Kurt's going to have a great career doing it, and I just hope I can give them a little bit here and there, you know.
But, you know, you don't necessarily need a lot, that's for sure.
If you need a lot, you're not very good, I don't think.
