You're going to be here. Welcome to episode 509 of the sleeper and the bus. It is Monday,th when your house Paul Spoor joined by

you know say you know what is up? Not much I'm it's like weird because the

hot stove season's not quite getting going and you know no means are approaching and

It's somebody's fault. It's one person's fault. I mean not his fault. It's not his fault. It's not his fault. It's not his fault, but he's holding it up and that is of course

he Oh Tani. I see I think I might disagree I think the one there is one person holding it up. Yeah, it's Dan I think O'Tani's holding it up more personally but I think everybody just wants

Otani and it's his choice and you can't really build a plan around him because you don't you can't even say okay we'll buy him.

Yeah so it doesn't matter the money doesn't matter so.

Yeah, you have no clue like where you stand in fact they sent out this memo about like woo us

basically we'll talk a little bit about that I agree I really think it's both I

really think it's Stan and Otani that have held up the hot stove.

Nothing's really happening. We got two tiny moves we're going to talk about today.

It's just it's crawling right now. I think everything really starts to move

Decent what is it December 5th on Otani and then of course we're starting to see teams drop

Oh no they can post them as early as December 1st, so in a couple days possibly.

But even then we won't know for a month basically what happens after that because it's like all it's all secret so you know

we'll know that he posted we won't know who won because you know that they don't reveal that sort of thing until later

Well and then like you said Stanton of course is is a is a big deal apparently some teams are putting in some formal offers which you know again

we won't really know what's going on of course right now I think the latest thing I saw

was that the freaking Dodgers are his top target which I don't blame

him of course it's just like rich getting richer as hell though because of

course they can afford it whatever sort of financial aspect the

Marlins want to work out in terms of okay you take this much and we'll get this
