Nice to have you here.

Right. So we will have that conversation momentarily. Also, we'll talk some Cincinnati

All right. We're joined right now by a former major leaguer. He played 12 years in the bigs for the Marlins, the Red Sox, the Orioles, and the Blue Jays.

He won a World Series with the Red Sox in 2004. He is an MLB analyst, network analyst. You can watch him, co-host MLB Network's intentional talk with Ryan Dempster and Sarah Santos throughout the postseason, including on-site at the World Series later this October, of course. I'm talking about Kevin Malar. Kevin, always great to talk to you. How are you feeling, dude? What's up? I'm doing good, brother.
