It's the like, we're going to spend four days in Baltimore.

And is it, you know, Kirk was up with the team this weekend.

Barger was around.

Nathan Lucas is going to be back today.

Like a lot of those guys at least do the check-ins in Toronto.

And I think there is like a leadership and probably a mental health component for the injured guys too.

Like, like Bowden Francis is having a great time doing photography for the Dunedin Blue Jays as he works.

But I'm sure he misses the fellas a little bit as well.

So yeah, I think that part is probably easier to navigate when you're at home and you have everything.

But if you're Kirk and you're a couple days from a rehab assignment, you're probably not going to Baltimore.

You're probably going back down to the complex.

I'm using Kirk as an example because obviously he's such a big part of helping that pitching staff.

Yeah, it's tough.

I'd imagine Max Scherzer is fine doing the pitching coach role while he's hurt.

But yeah, a different guy might fit in like that a little differently.

So a lot of injury updates to come a little later today.

I guess the other trickle down of this, especially on the pitching side, is that guys are being forced into roles that they maybe haven't played before.

And it's maybe a little early and into usage levels where there might be.

And you obviously don't want this to happen, but it is possible that.

this injury situation has a cascade effect where Braden Fisher and Mason Fluharty right now are tied for the league lead in appearances.
