The the player development staffs or front office staff tends to look at their staffing for the following year.
September is usually decision time, September, October.
So if you want to get in what is a very long queue to work in professional baseball, this is actually the time to do it because this is when teams are setting up their budgets and planning for next year, obviously in a regular circumstance because we don't know what the labor situation is.
But
But this is the planning time of year.
So I I have every confidence, Blake, that Mark Shapiro, Ross Atkins, Andrew Tinish, the full group of of the front office, they're looking at
Those evaluation points and developing a plan.
The blessing of all this, and while it has not been the season the Jays hoped for, these are meaningful games.
And so you're getting to evaluate Araghetti in a meaningful situation, a Josh Smith in a meaningful situation, obviously Bateman in a meaningful setting.
So it used to be that that they would sometimes say in years gone by, you would never want to base
Your evaluation on September results for a non-contending team because rosters expanded uh to a greater extent than what you see now day to day.
And and so the results would sometimes get skewed, especially if you have no pressure.
The Jays have pressure still.
And so you're looking at someone like Miles, for example, who has really emerged as a trustworthy player, of course, got a save earlier this week.
You've had now a full year to evaluate what Miles can do for you.
And so even in the midst of a a disappointing season, I think there have been some really positive developments that give the Jays some depth and and a strong foundation for twenty twenty seven.
good.
Good at bats.
And to your point, there is there's a little bit of power there, a little bit of gap power.
Uh, I know the comparison has been made to Steven Kwan before, and I think there's some validity to that.
