- 45:09And
- 45:09then
- 45:10within
- 45:10the
- 45:10first
- 45:10week
- 45:10and
- 45:10a
- 45:11half
- 45:11of
- 45:11the
- 45:11season,
- 45:11you
- 45:11make
- 45:12just
- 45:12a.
- 45:13That

- 45:25hot
- 45:25dogging
- 45:26it

- 45:29was
- 45:29addressed
- 45:29within
- 45:29the
- 45:30team
- 45:30as
- 45:30they
- 45:30spoke,
- 45:32but
- 45:33I'd
- 45:33keep
- 45:33an
- 45:33eye
- 45:33on
- 45:33that
- 45:34for
- 45:34sure.
- 45:35Yeah,
- 45:35second
- 45:35base.
- 45:37You

- 45:37with
- 45:37Jeff
- 45:37McNeil
- 45:38out,
- 45:38I
- 45:38think
- 45:39what
- 45:39an
- 45:40addition
- 45:40is
- 45:40going
- 45:40to
- 45:40be
- 45:40when
- 45:40he
- 45:41comes
- 45:41back.
- 45:42I
- 45:42thought
- 45:42we
- 45:42would
- 45:42have
- 45:42said
- 45:43that.
- 45:43Coming
- 45:43out
- 45:43of
- 45:44spring
- 45:44training,
- 45:45but
- 45:46it
- 45:46really
- 45:46appears
- 45:46that
- 45:46way,
- 45:47that
- 45:47he
- 45:47is
- 45:47a
- 45:474A
- 45:48player.
- 45:49You
- 45:49know,
- 45:49they
- 45:50almost
- 45:50have
- 45:50to
- 45:50send
- 45:50him
- 45:51down
- 45:51before
- 45:51his
- 45:51value
- 45:51just
- 45:52plummets
- 45:52to
- 45:52nothing,
- 45:53because
- 45:53if
- 45:53they
- 45:54had,
- 45:54his
- 45:54trade
- 45:55value
- 45:55was
- 45:55probably
- 45:55nothing
- 45:56higher
- 45:56than
- 45:56coming
- 45:57out
- 45:57of
- 45:57spring
- 45:57train.
- 45:58And
- 45:58right
- 45:58now,
- 46:00like
- 46:01you
- 46:01said,
- 46:01it's
- 46:02not
- 46:02as
- 46:02if
- 46:02he
- 46:03hasn't

- 46:06opportunity.
- 46:08His
- 46:08glove,
- 46:08I
- 46:08think,
- 46:09has
- 46:09been
- 46:09a
- 46:09little
- 46:09bit
- 46:09better
- 46:10than

- 46:10at
- 46:10that
- 46:10spot.
- 46:11What
- 46:11we
- 46:11expected.
- 46:13So
- 46:13those
- 46:14two
- 46:14things,
- 46:14the
- 46:14other
- 46:15thing,
- 46:15starting

- 54:04used
- 54:04it,
- 54:04Volpe
- 54:05Wells,
- 54:05Chaz
- 54:05Chisholm,
- 54:06Cody
- 54:07Bellinger,
- 54:07Goldschmidt,
- 54:08Tampa
- 54:08Bay
- 54:09Junior
- 54:09Caminero,
- 54:10and
- 54:10even
- 54:11Toronto's
- 54:11Davis
- 54:12Schneider,
- 54:12who

- 54:12terrible
- 54:13today,
- 54:14supposedly
- 54:14is
- 54:14using
- 54:15it.
- 54:15So
- 54:16I
- 54:17guess
- 54:17it's
- 54:17out
- 54:18there.
- 54:18It's
- 54:18just
- 54:18a
- 54:18matter
- 54:18of
- 54:19now
- 54:19how
- 54:19fast
- 54:19are
- 54:19we
- 54:19going
- 54:20to
- 54:20get
- 54:20them
- 54:20in
- 54:20the
- 54:20dugouts.
- 54:22Well,
- 54:22and
- 54:23how
- 54:23fast
- 54:23they
- 54:23can
- 54:23come.
- 54:26And
- 54:26I
- 54:26think,
- 54:27like
- 54:27Mike
- 54:28mentioned
- 54:28the
- 54:29open
- 54:29day
- 54:29that
- 54:29the
- 54:30Yankees
- 54:30had,
- 54:31I
- 54:31think
- 54:31that
- 54:31brought
- 54:32a
- 54:32lot
- 54:32of
- 54:32attention
- 54:32to
- 54:33it,
- 54:33too,
- 54:33because
- 54:34really,
- 54:35when
- 54:35Lindor

- 54:36it
- 54:36last
- 54:36year,
- 54:37it
- 54:37was
- 54:38never
- 54:38brought
- 54:38up.
- 54:38So
- 54:39I
- 54:39think
- 54:40the
- 54:40extreme
- 54:42home
- 54:42runs
- 54:43on
- 54:43opening
- 54:44day

- 54:45lot
- 54:45of
- 54:45this
- 54:45to
- 54:45light.
- 54:46And
- 54:47if
- 54:48you
- 54:48don't
- 54:48see
- 54:48a
- 54:49dramatic
- 54:50uptick
- 54:50in
- 54:51home
- 54:51runs.
- 54:51You
- 54:52know,
- 54:52the
- 54:52noise
- 54:53will
- 54:53probably
- 54:53die
- 54:54down.
- 54:54Yep.
- 54:55Well,
- 54:55hopefully
