Rich Hill

And no offense, I don't know, if you talk about other Hall of Fames and other sports, it seems like it's pretty generous.

I mean, being around a guy like that, third baseman for the Chicago Cubs for a long time and gets into the Hall of Fame, would have loved to have given that speech.

He lived and breathed in everything about baseball, and then he passes away, and it's like, oh, we'll put him in now.

Yeah, it's going to be great.

I mean, I think in that sense they need to go ahead

And grab another bat.

I think that would be huge.

You know, missing out on Alonzo probably hurt.

I think Bregman, you know, in a sense, I know that was a popular vote around here, but, you know, something where you have a chronic hamstring that continues to keep coming up.

where you're trying to get a guy that's going to play as close to 162 as you want.

I think you're kind of shaving in more 130 for him.

And there's no doubt he was a great presence in the clubhouse.

He was another coach.

You know, everybody spoke the praises of him.

But, again, I think that was probably a good mess for the Red Sox as opposed to maybe Pete.

I love Alonzo.

I think Pete's great.

I mean, he played with him in New York, and just the presence that he brings in the locker room and also how he carries himself in the

you know, public and, and, and what he gives you on the field is, is incredible.

So, you know, as far as run prevention and where they're going in that direction, that that's, that's seems like it's, you know, see my Texas Rangers stat.
