| 0:00.0 | Um, but completely in the trustery, like I, um, was sitting there yesterday, you know, |
| 0:06.7 | this started to get circulated where it was like, oh, Carlos Correa, like, there's worry about his, |
| 0:13.2 | his physical. And I was like, that freaking Steve Cohen is gonna, they're gonna get him. |
| 0:18.8 | Like, they're going to find a way to get him. So when I saw the news this morning, |
| 0:22.9 | it was like the least shocking thing ever. I was like, of course, they did. Um, and it's, |
| 0:28.7 | it's crazy. I can't believe Correa is a freaking met. It reminds me so much of a rod going to |
| 0:36.0 | the Yankees. That was like out of nowhere to when he's supposed to be a red sock. He is now playing |
| 0:42.7 | third base. And like, I don't know if I don't know if a ball is going to get to the left side of the |
| 0:47.5 | game field. I gotta be honest. Like, I don't think it's gonna get through. Um, but like for as much |

| 1:31.6 | man. Every owner in baseball hates this dude. And I absolutely love it. Like, again, I, |
| 1:37.7 | baseball needs 30 Steve Cohen. It really does. The guy that he's so good for this for all the, |
| 1:43.3 | like the red sock, the Boston freaking red socks are crying poor right now. The Boston red socks are |
| 1:52.0 | crying poor. And, and I love that Steve Cohen is just like shining a light on how absolutely |
| 1:58.1 | cheap they're being. So that's great. But like enough for, like enough already. Like, the numbers |
| 2:03.9 | are insane. The number, like, did you see this? Like, so for those who might not have seen it. So |
| 2:09.2 | with the, their, their payroll right now is $384 million. He will be paying 111 million dollars. |
| 2:20.5 | $3 tax dollars. Jack Fritz, that's essentially the St. Louis Cardinals, more or less, |
