But when they say that, when this is their goal, when this is their mission, then you have to hold them to that, don't you?

Wait a second.

I don't care about trying.

I don't care about trying.

Like, either you do or you don't.

Like, you can try, but if that's your plan and that's your goal and that's what you feel is important, then either you do or you don't.

And they could still win, but the fact of the matter is is that exactly what I said.

Either you do or you don't.

Last year at the deadline, when they didn't get Joe Ryan, all you guys were yelling about they weren't aggressive enough, they should have got Joe Ryan, blah, blah, blah.

Well, nobody else got him either.

You just don't.

Joe, not to interrupt you, but that's the problem also is that when you go in and you're also saying, which is another thing they said, we are going to get a guy who's going to pitch in the playoffs with the understanding that at the trade deadline, that is the hardest thing to get.

And especially when you want to get a guy with years of control who has that skill set, it's almost impossible to get Dylan Cease, Garrett Crochet, and last year, Joe Ryan.

So you're right.

Yeah.

They weren't going to get him, but they should have known that they weren't going to get him.

Well, hell with him.

Let him walk.

I do like availability.

Thanks, Jack.
