I don't think people realize JP.
that the defense, you know, a lot of people say like, well, the averages now's not many more than 300 hitters.
Also, that has dropped dramatically is the fundamental defense in Major League Baseball.
Which I I put on
the fact that, you know, all all these travel teams and and you know, and all these things, they've gotten away from the fundamentals and gotten into all these s certain metrics when the really key of baseball is the repetition practice of how you pitch, how you throw, how you catch.
That's the true repetition.
That's how you get better.
Uh so I I I think you know you're you're not seeing as as great of arms in the outfield, as greater arms even in the infield.
Um so so if you're putting if you're putting them on their heels and making them make those play in the deep in the hole regularly, um, getting the outfielders moving all side to side all the time, all of a sudden putting the ball in play makes a big, big
uh you know difference, you know.
Uh so listen, Chandler Simpson's one of the best ones at doing that.
You know, three of his hits yesterday were in the infield and um and and pitchers, I tell you what, when Chandler comes up
I bet you pitchers are like, damn it, he's probably gonna hit it back up the middle on me.
Yeah.
Because he hits a lot of balls up the middle and the glance off a glove and you know, he's looking for that glance, he's looking for that little chance to to use his speed.
God bless him, by all means.
I'll give you an example of that.
And uh and and last year was not the last year was the case for Seattle, you know, having this kind of qu you know, magical season.
Here they are, which I thought was
So cool to introduce their top fifty players, right?
