You can do what it seems like they're gonna do and ride it out with Munutaka Murakami, and you hope that he voice-verified

runs into a ball at the right time and works a walk here and there. voice-verified

But I just don't or you can say, Hey, you gotta come sit down for a couple of days and we'll put somebody else in there. voice-verified

I think they feel like because of the power that he brings to that lineup, there is still a threat there. voice-verified

But I don't know how much of a threat he's really giving you right now because the the bats are starting to look non-competitive. voice-verified

And when you're in voice-verified

that place, that's usually when you start to see teams give a guy a mental day. voice-verified

But yeah, the results are just not there right now. voice-verified

And you're at a point in the season where you really need every guy in that lineup to be giving you a competitive A B. voice-verified

I think the other thing that they might be thinking when it comes to giving him a day is one, yeah, there's only like a a week and a half left in the season. voice-verified

But two voice-verified

Do you kill the confidence of a guy that's already struggling if you bench him at this point in time? voice-verified

Like what's what I think he's you're trying to decide what's more important here is a guy who you believe in, who is struggling, who probably needs a day or two off. voice-verified

Does benching him and giving him that mental reset for a couple of days, does that do more harm than good to his confidence? voice-verified

Because he can see the strikeout numbers. voice-verified

Like he probably knows his numbers better than anybody right now. voice-verified

So I I think they are trying to balance here, but I think the reality is: are you trying to manage a guy's confidence or are you trying to win the division? voice-verified

Yeah, and I get it. voice-verified

And if you're trying to win the division and you voice-verified

Y he's not helping you do that right now. voice-verified
