I feel so comfortable around these guys already just from our time in spring, and I feel like it's going to be an easy transition.

Yeah, just a lot of them kind of say that there's a lot that goes on on the debut day and

Your main goal is to go do your job and help win a game.

Don't let the distractions be too much for you.

Handle it like a pro, but at the end of the day, the goal is to go win a game today, and that's the focus.

I mean, it's a call that I'll always remember.

You know, I got to, you know, at the hotel, go back to my wife and tell her, and we got to have a special moment just celebrating with her and then was able to call my parents.

And, you know, everybody was scrambling to try to figure out how to get here as quick as they can just to be able to celebrate together.

So definitely a special moment.

I've had a lot of people be able to pour into my life to get me here, and I'm super thankful.

As you've gotten to share this news, what have the best reactions been and who else has stood out?

I don't know, man.

I've had a lot of friends, a lot of people that were pretty shocked that it happened that quick, five games in AAA, and there were some pretty funny reactions about that.

But everybody's been awesome.

I have a super strong circle of people that are supporting me and that love me from back home, and I'm just thankful to have a lot of great people in my circle.

No, I'm ready for this.

I'm prepared.

And, you know, I was just trying to take it day by day and do my job and continue to get better.

And I was ready for whenever the moment was going to come.

It still hasn't really hit me quite yet.
