Well, it's interesting.
You mentioned two pitchers.
Sometimes that's a difficult thing.
One of the things, and again, I want you to correct me if I'm wrong, but I always had a huge problem with...
putting a C on somebody's jersey in baseball.
I could talk for two hours about captains, and I get it.
There are outliers.
Aaron Judge is an outlier.
And there are some guys, I remember Ortiz covering him, and Mookie said this to me after Ortiz retired.
He said, we are having a hard time figuring out because everything was passed through Ortiz.
It wasn't like Ortiz was –
fire and brimstone, but everything is passed through Ortiz.
So I get it.
I get that.
But for a baseball clubhouse, because this comes back to the pitcher thing, there are so many elements of a clubhouse.
You almost need like three, four.
So you have pitchers.
You have maybe utility players.
Maybe you have a guy who's bilingual.
Maybe it's relief pitchers.
