Herd is good.

You'll take the solo shot.

It's kind of like your opponent in the NBA scoring 40.

If the rest of the team doesn't, then you have a better chance of winning.

The problem is when that guy still scores 40 and everybody else is scoring 40.

When you've got ducks on the pond and you hit the bomb, that's when it's the issue.

I also want to ask you this.

We saw Nico Horner have an excellent couple games batting leadoff.

Three for five yesterday, the home run.

I have, and it's as simple as, like, you know, my theory on Palencia was he throws 100, he's the closer.

The end.

And with Nico, he gets on base the most.

The end.

And Jim Deshaies was on yesterday with Spiegel and Holmes.

I want to play this for you guys just to hear what he had to say, the Cubs TV analyst, about Nico batting leadoff.

So that was Jim Deshaies.

What do you think?

Because I know, Marshall, you talked about Michael Bush batting leadoff too, and you were kind of going back and forth a bit.

It is Majinsky.

Yeah, dare I say, say a Bats third, and I would put Michael Bush fourth, and then Alex Bregman fifth.
