So I think that's just got to make it harder to throw strikes in general.
I don't think it's been emphasized to players, but maybe players are feeling that and just getting a little more passive defensively.
which could also lead to lower batting average, right?
Because then you get to two strike counts more often and that's always going to be hard.
But I think offense, you know, is traditionally down the first couple weeks of the season anyways with pitchers are healthy, they have their best stuff and climates are colder and this and that.
But that'll be interesting to follow as the year goes on.
Yeah.
I mean, it's, it's definitely, I believe outlined just kind of how to define leverage and when to use those.
I think we've only ran out of challenges once, but,
And it was just the end of the ninth inning, just throwing out there kind of situation.
I think I did it and lost one.
So I think maybe that informs that we could be a little more aggressive, I think, on the offensive side.
I think we've probably left some out there.
I struck out looking last night in the first inning, and it wasn't like, ah, maybe I should challenge.
I thought it was a strike, and it wasn't.
It was a half an inch off the plate in, but it felt like a strike.
Yeah.
I was wrong.
So it's like, it's that stuff happens, but I think we could be a little more aggressive offensively, especially in, you know, second, third inning, a couple of guys on base, a lot of games are decided early and nothing happens in the night that affects the game.
So yeah, it'll be interesting though.
