After a few games against the Dodgers, he's in the cages afterwards hitting.

And I like that.

I admire that.

He is working.

But I think that a loose and fun Vladdy is a good Vladdy.

And we're not seeing a great version of him yet with a lot of pressure, more pressure than he's ever had.

Well, that's it.

And Vladdy's handled it well, but John Schneider's already having to answer for a lot, guys.

I think he's handling it well.

I think of Tony Vitello, the new manager in San Francisco, where every postgame, it's like, what is this guy doing?

He is so far out over his skis when he's talking about these things.

Dude, he was yelling at the ball boy the other day.

And he's leaving so many openings for media just to say, what the hell, and get into this.

And whereas John Schneider, it's his job not to be dramatic.

It's his job to make it so that when the next day comes and I wake up in the morning, there's nothing else left to really talk about.

And I think he's done a good job of that, but you can only do that for so long.

Yeah, well, exactly.

Like that Vladdy one yesterday.

Like, if they had have lost the game, I'm writing a story about that.

It's a good team that's not great that I don't think will roll over anyone in the postseason.
