Jeff, welcome back.

How are you?

I am great, Scott.

I mean, so many good things in life. Trip was amazing. Had daughter's graduation party, had a great soccer tournament weekend. And our Reds are in first place, like you said. Although they played the big boys this weekend and lost two out of three. But hung with them. They didn't get blown out the gym. Every time they got down, they came back. Today's game was really close. Could have go either way. Friday night was fun with the Ellie cycle. I hope they hung with him pretty well for a team. The Braves are really, really good and on fire. And the Reds are, they need a couple pitchers right now. But I hope they hung in there really well., Matt McLean can hang with anybody. That dude's my boy right there.

Yeah, he's awesome.

The Reds need four pitchers. Yeah. I mean, there's Andrew Abbott and then there's everybody else. We'll see if Ashcraft returns to cromulence at some point, but I wouldn't, I wouldn't count on that. I'm not counting on that. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, they brought up Levi Stout, Strout for today's start.

Yeah.

Because they had yet another pitcher go on the IL. It's a tough look right now. It is a little bit tough. But, you know, Hunter Green should be back here. Maybe Lodolo at some point here would be back. So, you know, that's a, that's more of a maybe up in the air.

But I think at some point, maybe in July, August, Della Dole way back. So it's, it's looking, it's been fun, though. I mean, they, these are the first two losses since you, since you left, since we last talk. So it was, uh, it's, it was a lot of fun. I got my wife on board. I'm officially, I'm officially on board for the rest of the season.

It's officially our Reds. All right.

I love it. I love it on board for the rest of the season. It's officially our Reds.

All right. I love it. I love it. And there's still, despite the sellouts this weekend, I still save plenty of room aboard the bandwagon. Twitter is infinite. So jump aboard. I just want it to be trademarked that our Reds has been a thing for many seasons. Yes, it has. Yes, it has. and RAs too, unfortunately.

Yeah, that is that we gave up that trademark.
