And I think what's gonna happen here is Craig Council, the the manager, is really gonna have to earn his money, potentially in ways that will frustrate people.

And what I mean by that is if you look at Imanaga this year, we've been talking about the third time through the order penalty forever.

And I know it's frustrating the people.

Um, but his his this year, it's really, really stark.

Uh his strikeout rate goes something like, try to remember, 29% the first time through to 24% to like 15.

The third time through, because he's so dependent on fastball velocity.

And if he he loses even a tick, it goes poorly.

So what's going to happen here is he's going to go out and probably get a start and probably pitch pretty well the first time through.

And you know, we're through four and two-thirds, and he is quote unquote dealing.

And counsel gets him out because he knows what's going to happen the third time through, and people are going to lose their minds.

How could you take out a starter, throwing a shutout?

In a playoff game, what does the world come to?

And meanwhile, he's like, I'm just trying to win a game, guys.

I don't trust him to be good the third time through.

Bring on a reliever.

I think that's what's gonna happen.

Yeah, if it was just about making contact, then the 2024 and 2026 Blue Jays would be an elite offense.

And that has not really happened, right?

Um, I think you can eliminate the Dodgers from that conversation.

Just they're not a batting average team.
