You're currently number 22 on MLB Pipeline Top 100 list, and it looks like there is an
00:08
opportunity for you to start at third base. At least that is the plan. Are you monitoring
00:14
what they're doing in terms of different rumors going around? Are they going to
00:18
sign somebody else? Or do you feel like that's your job?
00:23
Yeah, I mean, you definitely monitor. Obviously, I would love to play third base.
00:31
You sign a big free agent, and all of a sudden, everything shifts. And that's the nature of
00:37
baseball. That's the nature of professional sports. And I'm well aware of that. But at the
00:42
same time, I just hope that they have the same faith in me, and that they'll at least give me
00:49
that opportunity to win that job. So for me, there's obviously nothing in that that I can
00:56
control. I mean, I can't control if they sign Alex Bregman, or I can't control if they bring in
01:01
whomever. But the thing I can control is to be ready for the season, and obviously to come out
01:07
strong here on February 20th when we play our first game, and rock and roll. So that's kind
01:12
of what I'm looking forward to. And at some point, you just hope that they have faith in you as a
01:19
player, and that's really all you can ask for.
