Welcome to episode 966 of The Super in the Bust. I am Justin Mason, as always, joined by Jason Collette. Jason, how you doing?

0:27.0

I'm doing well, despite I can barely move today. Jacob and I went for a hike up at the state line in between North Carolina and Tennessee. There's an area called Carver's gap.

0:38.0

It's about 5,500 foot elevation at the parking lot and then you go up in between the road mountains and you get up to like 60, 500 feet at one point. We did it just over eight miles and about 2000 feet of elevation change rooms all said and done because we went up to the left, came down, went out to the right.

0:56.0

I woke up this morning going, oh my God, I may have to just literally roll out of bed and crawl to the bathroom. But you know, it was great weather day because it was in the 60s up there and it is not in the 60s down here in Charlottes. How about you?

1:12.0

I'm doing all right. I have not really done anything this weekend. We're cleaning up the house. We're redoing a refi right now and so we've got an appraiser coming over later this week. So it's just pretty much completed.

1:25.0

I meant to ask you how the Olympics go.

1:27.0

The Olympics went great. I posted some of the video onto my Twitter account so you can find it there if you want to see me in a very skimpy.

1:41.0

I don't even know what it's called. Wrestling Singlet.

1:46.0

And I won. I was the champion of the Olympics because I do not take it easy on my children.

1:56.0

Hey, how else are they supposed to learn exactly? So joining us today is a special guest. We have Tim McCalla. Tim, welcome to the show.

2:05.0

Hey, thank you. It's great to be here. Thanks for having me.

2:09.0

Of course, it's great to have you. Remind everybody where you reach social media and then talk about what you do in the industry.

2:15.0

Alright, I am at Tim's 10s with Z on the end. So T I M T M Z.

2:22.0

And I work for baseball prospectus. And over there, I'm kind of their specialist for relief pictures. I track relievers and maintain their closer grid.

2:36.0

And that's that's been kind of my niche over there for the last two and a half years.

2:42.0

Nice. And we are going to talk about some closer today because we had some a roll this Chapman news hit the wire unfortunately yesterday.

2:52.0

But so we'll get your thoughts on who might be closing in York while he is gone.

2:57.0

But first let's jump in to some some news about John Scope. He signs a two year extension. He's got an opt out after next season.

3:05.0

I guess this is the reason why they did not trade him at the trade deadline because I was a little bit surprised that the Tigers didn't make any major moves.

3:15.0

Tim, what are your thoughts on John Scope staying in Detroit for a couple more years?

3:21.0

Well, I think actually think it was a great move by Detroit. Scope is showing some improvement against left handers the last two seasons.
