I'm confident the bats are, I still think the bats are going to be fine and the offense is going to be fine.

I think the starting pitching is going to be fine about what we thought.

I don't think it's going to be better like it came out of the gates feeling.

I think it's going to be what we thought it was.

I am worried that the bullpen.

Absolutely, yeah.

That's the hard part.

And so start pushing some of those guys in there.

Well, yeah, I mean, they got to get... You got to have at least one down there ready to go for if somebody drops.

And right now, Burgert's on the shelf.

Yeah.

I think Avila's a reliever.

I don't want to see him back.

I've...

He's the guy I'm talking about, though.

Someone like that, where you're starting him.

But to me, for me, that's been part of the plan all along.

Part of my bullpen plan was that they would bring him up and he would assume the 7th or 8th inning.

So the longer he's not doing that, the further they are from being the bullpen I think they can be.

But, I mean, I think the question is, do they have to go with a Colich or a, you know, I don't think it's going to be Berger.
