And Ryan McGuffie and got a couple podcasts coming up this week. The one today is about Jose

Abrae. He was obviously starting in the All-Star game. And, you know, we in Chicago know what Jose Abrae is all about, but we wanted to ask some

of the teammates that he has on the American League squad about him.

And safe to say, he's thought very highly of.

Yeah.

And I'm quite honestly not surprised by that, but to hear these guys reflect on Jose Abraeu in a way that almost makes

them seem like a real teammate every day for 162, that stood out to me.

And whether it's Michael Brantley and the Indians, Justin Verlander, you go down the line

and these guys rave about Jose Abraeu, which tells you exactly why he's starting the AL All-Star game.

Yeah, I mean, we hear baseball cliches a lot, you know, control what you can control, go about

your business, do all this and do all that and focus. Joseo Rio kind of defines that approach.

And I think that gains a lot of appreciation from guys all across the league, whether they've

pitched against him, whether they've played against him,

or whether they're just watching him from afar, not to mention the guy puts up pretty good numbers and he's a pretty good hitter. You're going to hear Justin Verlander, and it's funny because Justin Verlender should be praising Jose Abraeuk. when you look at the career numbers he's put up against him now this year Verlanders

kind of own to Brayu but you look back and I mean I think he's got like five home runs
