It's cakes, EB, and JP today, and joining us right now on the Rood guest hotline. Rood's most reliable heating and air-condition products in the DMV. It's our pal, Grant Paulson, who, of course, you can listen to every day right here on 1067 the fan with our pal, funny Danny, Danny Roo-ye. What's up, GP? First pitches were a success yesterday, yesterday gentlemen look like we did a good job

and booie thank you pretty solid overall mine mine mine was kind of nubby you can pitch for

the gnats it looks like yeah we might be better better arms in the bullpen seventh inning tonight

i think for you jp i'll put cakes in the eighth, and EB, you can close it.

All right.

I don't like the pressure.

I'll throw a 50-mile-an-hour meatball right down the middle.

So, you get eaten alive.

So obviously this team is way over, you know, achieved beyond our expectations.

But it is what it is now.

I mean, this is kind of who this is kind of who they are, right? Like a great

hitting team. They score a bunch of runs and they can't close out games. Do you think that they're

going to do anything meaningful here when the deadline hits, or are they just going to kind of play

around the edges?

I think they'll thread the needle.

And I think Paul Toboni, when he was on with you guys on Wednesday, used that phrase.

So I've taken it from him.
