Even in my darkest hour, there was still a light somewhere, letting me know by its glow that I'd find comfort then.

I want to know this truth, waiting for love to go, and if even I can find someone there so far so.

Hello and welcome to episode 1867 of Effectively Wild, a baseball podcast from Fangrass presented by our Atreane supporters.

I am Benlundberg of the Ringer joined by Meg Rally of Fangrass. Hello Meg. Hello.

Tried something new today, I went with Hello instead of Hello. I'm just changing up the format here after 1866 episodes. Gotta keep things fresh.

Yeah, right is the spice of life and I'm sure it is a difference that will shock and concern many Ben.

Yeah, whoa. Okay. This is a new Effectively Wild, Benlundsay and Hello, slightly differently.

So I have not heard from Michael Orrenton about yesterday's episode, so I assume that our subsequent follow-up discussion about Michael Orrenton was either to his liking or he has better things to do than listen to all of our episodes and provide immediate feedback.

But that's reassuring. I guess it's not going to be a daily fixture of the show that we will get feedback directly from players we discussed, but that was fun.

I guess I should, you know, I should save my arm day material for when I know they're listening.

Yeah. So what we are going to do is emails. We did some emails yesterday, but we're going to do some more.

It's just going to be an oops, all emails episode got some regular emails, got a lot of pedantic emails for warned is for armed here.

I said yesterday that I was going to push some pedantry to the next episode and this is that episode.

And people have risen to the occasion or stooped to the occasion as the case may be.

And then we will end as always these days with the past blast. But let's talk about some non-pedantic questions. Perhaps Dory says, hope all is well.

I've been wondering.

Let's pause at that for a moment.

Yeah, like we don't have to go into it, but things are objectively terrible.

So all this wealth Dory, unfortunately.

Yeah, it's not definitely not Dory's fault. Believe me.

It holds your responsible towards it. Yeah, they're like, you know, six specific people, for instance, that we might point our fingers at many more to follow from there.

I appreciate the sentiment story.
