0:00.0 | All right. Let's get to the first base thing. Did you see that one coming? No, not at all, |
0:05.3 | but again, I'm not that I'm not that shocked in the sense that it is less strain on the arm. |
0:11.0 | If he's going to try and play a position this year, it would make sense that that first is a |
0:16.1 | less taxing thing for his arm to do with the new, you know, surgery repaired elbow and all that |
0:21.7 | stuff. And look, I mean, Arper was a catcher, you know, his start his career is moving to the |
0:26.4 | outfield. I'm not that shocked that he would be willing to do it. The guy loves baseball, |
0:29.9 | the guy's obsessed with whatever. And I do think, look, it makes a lot of sense for this team. |
0:34.0 | It gives you a lot more freedom. Because again, I don't think that the arm and Nebraska even said |
0:38.8 | it when we met with him down in clear water. He's like, Harbor's not going to play right field |
0:42.4 | this year. You know, that or we're not concerned about him playing right field this year. |
0:47.2 | Is it realistic to you the first base thing? Because again, like, I get it. He's not going to have to |
0:51.9 | throw 100 feet on a on a on a rope. And that is more taxing in the air. But like, there's still |
0:56.8 | throws you have to make like if you're getting a long cut off down the right field line, you know, |
1:00.8 | throw home like, it's still a hard throw. So like, I'm still a little dubious. Now, it's pretty easy |
1:06.9 | to control. It's easier. I think to control like now, obviously, if it's a big game with the |
1:11.1 | postseason game, like, he's not to make that throw. But I think in the regular season, they can |
1:15.3 | fight be like, have the second baseman do it, like, kind of change your cutoff routine. So just |
1:19.8 | right now, it's going to have to throw the second base on double play balls, stuff like that |
1:22.8 | throw across the diamond every once in a while. Yeah, even though like the shame, the first |
1:26.9 | to third throw is pretty much out. It doesn't feel like you know, it never happens that you're right. |
1:30.2 | That's a good point. You really never say you're right. It's a shame. It never happens. |
1:34.0 | Um, so the one part that no one's really brought up is, um, you know, first off, like, |
