So as difficult as golf is, and it is diabolically difficult, the fear factor and the courage it takes to play baseball is the separator to me between the two most skillful sports out there for me, baseball and golf.
I mean, we had that nice little fun back and forth between Landon and Thierry about whether the French were arrogant in the first half.
We can have that discussion, but the reality is that if they are arrogant, it's because they can do things like that.
And the patience that they showed after a poor first half to come back and provide a masterful second half with the talent that they have and the big stars showing up, you know, that's pretty special.
He's not arrogance, he's confidence.
Ignorant people will say it's arrogance.
Intelligent people will say it's confidence.
Yeah, I think he is.
He's a very smart, realistic guy, and I think he has to look at his age and what's happened here lately and say, you know, maybe when Shane Bieber comes back, they're better off with him in the rotation instead of me.
I don't think Max is that kind of guy who's just going to pitch right to the end.
He's got a lot of other things going for him.
I'll never forget, though, Mike Hargrove once told me years and years ago, never be the manager that ever tells a superstar that he's done.
mike hargrove had to do that to dave winfield and it didn't go very well nor should it i mean guys who have that much pride and our first ballot hall of famers like max scherzer is going to be it's a really difficult thing so let's see what he i think he's going to get another start let's see what he does um a bunch of times in his career i have wondered uh
You know, I've underestimated him a little bit, and then he comes out and strikes out 12 guys in seven innings.
So I'm not ready to call that yet.
Let's see what happens if he gets one more start.
Tim, what do you make of the Jays up until this point?
I'm a little confused.
I thought they'd be better than this.
They're 24th in run score.
