Rob Thomson

It is tough, you know.

But I take my hat off to our starters for, you know, picking it up.

And, you know, when Zach went down, they just did a heck of a job.

They just kept getting better and better as season went on.

They pitched great in the playoffs.

Yeah, that's Duran's first career bases loaded walk.

So, I mean, you're not expecting that.

And just his ability to throw strikes, really wasn't expecting that.

But, you know, it happened.

It's just part of managing, and when something doesn't work, you're up for criticism, and I understand that.

It's just part of the job.

Dodgers have really good pitching you know so I mean their lineup's good too and they didn't score a whole lot of runs either so it's it really comes down to the pitching they pitch great we pitch great it was

a well-fought series.

They came out on top, unfortunately, and that's the way it is.

I feel awful.

Anything else for Rob?

Destiny?

Oh, I do.

I don't know what

um dave and and john and preston are going to do in the off season we haven't really talked about anything like that but um you know our farm system is being built up um i know that they're gonna you know they're i mean john's going to spend money he wants to win he wants a world champion so um there's good years ahead no doubt do you expect to manage next year
