That's the Mike Trout comparison where it comes in.

And I'm going to guess Colt Emerson isn't the size or the massive body type that Griffin is.

Also, I haven't seen him play.

But I think that, like, it really gets interesting when people like this start to sign because I don't think Emerson is on board.

Like, they're shortstop.

Crawford's hurt right now.

You know, he's coming back to play shortstop this year.

Emerson isn't.

unless it's a long-term injury that I don't know about.

And I think that like Griffin right now, it changes the stakes a little bit.

I think the only – this whole PPI up by April 9th is what clouded this whole contract coming with him being up.

You can only buy into that if he's up.

We talked about that last time I was in.

So, you know, I think the hard part where the Pirates do have some leverage –

You take a 19, 20-year-old kid who you're throwing $90 million or $100 million, and maybe this is what the Pirates are playing a little bit, and I don't blame them.

I do the same thing.

How do you say no to it?

How do you say no to it and risk it?

It's a small risk.

He looks like he's a for-sure prospect, but there's been a lot of for-sure guys that don't turn out.
