We were actually moving Penrod to the pen.

That's why I was there.

And he was an interesting one because throughout the minor leagues, his fastball was kind of his superpower.

And I was really interested to see how the new ball going from the minor league ball to the major league ball is going to affect the movement of the fastball.

And it did.

And it showed up.

But the success he saw kind of halfway through last year in AAA and then even the big leagues, a lot of it was just derived off of pure like power coming at you.

Like, let's go.

That's a pretty good place to start.

That ghost fork is absolutely disgusting.

Yeah.

It's how do you build out the arsenal?

How do you get to advantage counts?

How do you do these, these, these things to put you in advantageous positions to maximize your superpower?

Yeah.

Again, you go back to Tully.

We know his fastball is his superpower, but big league hitters can eliminate that superpower.

You have to use the rest of the arsenal to get back to it.

Kyle Harrison was a perfect example when we acquired him from San Francisco.

It was like, Kyle, your superpower is your fastball.
