Pete Alonso

So you view it as an opportunity when a player like that is a free agent, period.

You know, we have a young core, and that continues to –

be the backbone of the team but uh you know pizza young guy himself first of all but also the he's had more experience than our players he's played in the big leagues longer he's been in new york city he's been in the playoffs he's had success in the playoffs so that's really important i think to our position player side and apart from the production that we expect from him on the field um you know we're going to be getting that behind the scenes

Well, I did give him a call.

And, I mean, for Buck being here for, I don't know, maybe 10, 11 years, something like that, he had nothing but beautiful things to say, not just about the fan base, just this whole area.

And he was very, very, like, just...

I, again, he was, Buck's always funny.

He always has his, his isms.

And he just, he just said that this, this is a no doubt on like just hands down baseball, baseball environment.

Everything is focused on what's between the lines.

He's like, Kanban's a phenomenal place.

Like it's one of those, it's just one of those like iconic parks.

You're going to enjoy like playing in every single day.

And he's like, listen, this is,

He's like, Pete, you're going to absolutely crush this place.

And he's like, yep, Pete, God bless, God bless, God bless.

But he's, yeah, Buck's one of my all-time favorites, and he had nothing but beautiful things to say.

How's it going, Pete?

Good to see you, buddy.

Two questions for you.
