But it's great to have you, man. Thank you so much for taking the time here.

Yeah, no. Thank you for having me.

Oh, man. So there's so much I want to talk about with you.

And I really want to get to this game as well because one of the things that I've been doing with Pablo Lopez, Aaron Savali, James and Tyone is really talking pitch by pitch and really getting in your head of what it's like actually on the mound and the decisions that you're making the adjustments all of that stuff it's my favorite part of the game and i get to vicariously

lift through you guys after realizing as a d3 pitcher is like okay i'm probably not going to actually make

this uh but before we get to that i kind of want to hear about your development a bit i mean last

year you were with the Rangers.

I mean, had some moments in the majors and then I've come back from your, I want to say really

like your first and a half Tommy John.

Yeah.

Right.

Can you actually give us a little bit more clarity about really what that process is like for you?

Yeah.

So I mean, I came into with the tommy johns i came into spring

training um so it was spring training of 2018 i just put on a decent amount of weight um some not the

best weight but you know i i got to spring. We were kind of getting it going into games.

And there was a day where I'd like stowing a bullpen.

I was like something like a something's not right.

You know, like arms barking, go out to the game and I'm throwing like 85, like everything I had.

And then so blew out or called the trainer out there, you know, ended up getting MRI, got Tommy John.

And then May of 19, I'm two days away from being in a back into like full go game.

Like I've gone through all my stuff.
