We had a bunch of guys throw for us this year, so I think for them –

it was really cool to throw to them and each time kind of pick something out that they're doing better and better each time.

And, you know, I, I don't want to say they weren't good to begin with, but better and better in terms of the pitcher myself and, and us like kind of being on the same page, like to be able to have conversations, uh, pregame post game and, and talk about, you know, why did we do this?

Why did we throw that?

Um, talking to dugout in between there at bats or in between the inning, um,

Those guys are great, and they're great teammates.

They're great people.

They bring such a positive energy every day, and I'm just really looking forward to next year what they continue to do and how they continue to work hard and get better and what actually is possible considering now we have a year under our belt at the highest level of baseball, and hopefully that just continues.

I think for me, it's something I'm working on right now.

I think it's an off-season thing you've got to work on.

It's more of a mental preparation type thing.

There are moments when you know you're going to fall, you might prepare differently.

Obviously, the games I'd started, that was a start day that was different.

I had my own starters for team, but...

Yeah, I mean, I think to be able to throw in a bunch of different roles, you have to be able to stay as consistent as possible.

Now, I am a human being, so I'm not going to lie.

A save opportunity is probably a little more intense than going three innings in the middle innings.

But at the same time, our staff and our coaches are always –

you know, saying to me, like I've been told this, like we could come back and win the game.

Like you can still lose the game in the fifth or sixth inning.
