Two to nothing Sox.

It's something I thought could happen, but I was unsure whether or not they would get outbid again and to find out that they offered more money to

AAV than the Red Sox did, who already had him in-house.

It was interesting.

Also, you mentioned the deferment, the $70 million deferred.

I think at some point, and I've been asking for a couple of years now, hey, understand how other teams are doing business and getting their stars.

It's not just about Shohei Otani, but he should have been the signal, the smoke, if you will, that this is how you're going to get good players

to stay with you for the future and pay them what they're worth and understand you're going to have to defer money.

That's the way, if you're going to operate where you don't want to go into the luxury tax, you're going to have to make this deferral, if you will, like overall.

I'm just glad, Layla, that with the Edward Cabrera signing and now the Alex Bregman signing, I could stop using Tyler Austin as my headliner when I discuss the Cubs free agent moves.

I could stop.

Talking about Hobie Milner.

I could stop discussing, hey, Caleb Theobar is back.

Hey, Phil – like, I did not want the offseason to be about that.

Or at least making us sweat it out until it got closer.

I'm so happy because these baseball signings seem to happen later and later and later.

The Cubs jumped in.

They got it right.

They righted a wrong with this five-year $175 million deal.

Okay, Ken.
