Your two dudes with Skeens and Keller.
You have him and kind of Ashcraft in the middle.
Jones coming back and a couple, you know, Majenski and Yurkwity at that end of it.
So Chandler, like I saw some interesting tweet by one of my former teammates, Curt Schilling.
And he's kind of been β I don't know why he's β you know, he's obviously a controversial media member, but he's also a very successful pitcher and knows what he's doing.
And he's kind of going to battle with some people on Twitter, on X I guess it's called now, on why Chandler should go to the minor leagues.
And it focuses β you know, it kind of focuses on the command and throwing β
you know, and throwing with full effort, with full intent.
And when every pitch is like that, it's hard to command when you have β and he's very appraising of β he appraises Chandler.
He thinks he's like, this guy has a Hall of Fame arm, but throwing max β his argument, good, bad, whatever, is throwing max effort, unfortunately, is going to cause one day to him to throw a no-hitter and another day to throw four innings and walk six guys.
So he's a young dude with an unbelievable arm.
And I'm not saying I'm not necessarily agreeing with Schilling.
I thought it was just kind of interesting that Schilling's kind of latched on to, to like Bubba Chandler.
And I, and you know, it's, it's part of the social media person, you know, having a personality on social media.
But I think he's so young and again, another guy that just a good start and you kind of forget all the other stuff.
But the worst thing, you know, I was that guy who,
Not throwing 100 miles an hour, I might add.
But I was that guy where I was like the prospect coming up in the rotation.
And my issue was control.
And so the worst thing you can do is try not to, you know, lock people because that's when it kind of spirals in.
