That could be a difficult thing to manage.

But yeah, that's a hard transition.
And I think it makes a lot of sense that they're doing it.
It was something that was obviously, I think anyone in that seat would have realized this has to happen at some point.
And it's especially justified because it's not like they were really winning.
Yeah, and I think Soto is young enough when you sign them that you can actually take that chance that you can retool.
I don't think it's a rebuild.
I think they're better than people think.
It's emotional to see all this change and feel like they're, I'm not saying they're necessarily better off for these moves, but I don't think they're a terrible team.
I think they got some interesting young, especially arms that you mentioned.
with Christian Scott also coming back to like, they've got some, they've got some depth there.
