Do not worry.

More on the Giants, the firing of Shane Bowen, more on the Mets, trading Brandon Nimmo for Marcus

Simeon.

But what you may have missed earlier today is that Hal Steinbrenner met the media.

Let's find out what he had to say with this very special Cinco DeFiveo.

Cinco de Fivo with Evan and Tiki.

Cinco Day 50 is brought to you by Helix Wireless, connecting everything everywhere.

So Hal Steinbrenner met the media via Zoom today.

Spoke for about 22 minutes.

I parsed through some of the words he had to say.

And I'm here to give you my five takeaways,

including the answers here from Hal Steinbrenner's meeting with the media.

And away we go.

Here we go!

Number five.

He's a good manager at many of the things he has to do.

He's not perfect.

I'm not perfect.

You're not perfect.

But he is great at dealing with the players, with his staff, with cash's people, and with cash, with you guys, you know, and he makes overall

good decisions on the field. So, you know, you can, you can't pin this on Aaron Boone,

that's for sure. This Toronto series was on the players, it's on the player's shoulders, period. They didn't hit. We had a couple bad starts, and obviously against the Blue Jays, as I've already said, you can't do any of that. So there you go. That was he was asked about the manager and his thoughts on keeping Aaron Boone. Yeah, I mean, he says the same thing about Aaron every year. The thing I wonder about, and I wondered this to Cashman when he joined us a month ago, when does the expiration hit? There was an expiration on Gerardi. There was an expiration on Joe Tori. We are getting close in terms of years to that expiration. Yeah, I agree. There was no follow-up on that, which would have been, you know, do you need to make a change for changes sake? That was never brought up. But I don't disagree. It is on the players, but at some point, a manager probably is going to be. It's always on the players, but then you can say it's on the GM for picking the players. And again, not every decision he's made has been a home run. Like, we'll talk about that Cortez-Rever. Okay. Next up, about the Dodgers and the idea of maybe they're pulling away from the pack and the Yankees. Here we go. Number four. Well, I'll just speak for House Steinbrenner. Of course, it's a concern. They do have tremendous resources, but they've gotten the job done.
