Thanks for returning.

I mean, we didn't know where you were.

And then put, by the way, your brand has never been hotter.

Philadelphia Phillies, I don't know if that's exactly what you said, but it's close enough.

And sure enough, here we are, Philadelphia Phillies, Kyle Schwarber.

Our instincts were keen.

There are two things I know to be true.

Number one, if there's a third day of the winter meetings, you would not be able to wear a suit because you don't have three suits.

I don't have three suits.

And then also that Kyle Schwarber was going to probably end up with the Phillies.

And I think that as I think Scott Lauber said early, early, he's like, listen, they'll say go find your offers and then come back to us.

But ultimately...

they would burn the city down.

If Kyle Schwarber left, this was part of the fabric.

And one of the things you talked about yesterday was they want to sort of turn it over a little bit, but they don't want to totally turn it over.

And I said, you don't need to turn it over.

If you have a good player, keep the good player.

Well, the one that I'd be curious is not so much Alonzo, but it's like the Bregman, even Bichette.

If you really want to say, if John Middleton wants to say, hey, this is my legacy, that's what you do.

The shock and awe.
