So with that, I thank you, Kazuma, for deciding to make Toronto your new city, your new team and organization.
We definitely got better today.
So with that, I'll turn it over to Kazuma.
Yeah, I mean it's just been exciting to watch him over the years.
He's had uh an incredible career thus far.
The the impact on both sides of the ball, the offensive ability is as dynamic as it comes, it fits us very well, the contact ability against high V low, against all types of pitching, uh really any caliber of pitching, he's been able to uh not only make contact but drive the ball, which is a
about as good of a compliment as we could ask for.
Um and then we'll I think he answered it perfectly.
We'll we're set up that he could um impact our organization from a defensive standpoint in several ways.
Uh so we'll continue to have that dialogue with him.
But his openness uh to do uh you know put the team first is extremely attractive to us.
Yeah, I mean we've you've heard me say uh probably um um too many times to count that you know we'll always be open to making our organization and team better if there's a way to do that.
Uh at this point, you know, we we were answering the question uh you know back in early December and even in November that we felt good about our team as we uh as we were set.
at that point and that remains the question that remains the case and uh we've made it better.
So we do feel good about our team.
The one thing that I would add is additions at this point will start to cut away at playing time from players that we feel are uh very good major league pieces, so we have to factor that in.
Uh but we've always had incredible support from ownership.
Yeah, I mean all the things that I said previously, if there's a opportunity for us to think about improving the organization that we're going to always lean into creative ways to do so, we've always had incredible support.

the day.
Glad you had said that if there is not a deal reached by your deadline, you would not be negotiating for the rest of the season and you would hit free agency.
