Jonathan Mayo

I'm sure he was mad he didn't make the team.

But he gave himself the day, and then he kind of got back to work.

And I think what they saw in those five days made them feel comfortable with doing this.

And then that deal, you know, they couldn't sign him today because then they'd lose the PPI pick.

So that's also smart.

I think they only need to wait a week or whatever it is.

And there's some details I think they need to iron out.

But I just feel all the stars align just –

logistically what was best for the kid what's best for the team all of the stars aligned for it to make sense for today griffin's a true five tool guy but jonathan what is the best tool in his tool bag

The sixth one, the baseball IQ.

I mean, you know, in talking to so many people about him, the combination that gets brought up over and over again without me prodding for it is athleticism plus aptitude.

We've all seen really smart players who outplay their tools and they make it to the big leagues.

And we've certainly seen plenty of guys with unbelievable tools like he has, but they don't know how to use them.

He has both of those and the work ethic to put in the work when he needs to sort of grind it out.

But, I mean, if I had to pick one, it's probably his speed.

If you're just pure tool-wise, the raw power is ridiculous.

You know, the arm is at least a 70.

He was 95, 96 off the mound in high school, right?

So it's just, it's hard to pick just...

Juan, but I think his ability to use them.
