 I got some updates on Dylan Batanzas. So as you know that this spring, his Velo has been down. Last time that was going on, it was for the most part back around 2014 and 2015. But his last outing in Clearwater was still down, like we hadn't been seeing the progress. So like everything else, we low fly it, not overwhelmingly concerned from it. Been there before, but you stay engaged with your player through your pitching coach. You use your manager and your training staff. How you feel, how do you feel? And he has had no complaints, no injury, no pain. But he has recently then kind of opened up a little bit more about not necessarily feeling full strength, whether it's words of whether it's weakness or not being able to extend fully. And what's causing that? Not so certain. And so he's also shared with us that when he was going through the finalization of adding to his family that it interrupted his throwing program this winter. So he didn't necessarily throw as much, especially late as he normally was, because obviously being there as an expectant father, he felt that when he arrived in camp, he was a little behind, but didn't necessarily convey that. So he kind of rushed through to catch up. And so with all that being said, with the complaint of him not being able to, at least in his mind, get full extension and then also feeling a little bit weak and not being able to get that giddy up, we suggested he want to get an MRI just to clear up that there isn't anything going on there. We hadn't had one on an MRI on his shoulders for over five years. So he was amenable to that. So today at 11 o'clock, he had an MRI that we're able to determine he has inflammation. So it's right shoulder impingement. We believe the combination of him sharing that his winter throwing program wasn't as precise and consistent as in previous winters, because obviously the expected birth of his child, as you know, he showed up here obviously late to be there as where he needed to be. And then with probably the combination of him then rushing in the beginning of camp to catch up has caused inflammation and the impingement. I think that's another word for the inflammation in the shoulder. Everything else is all good. So we're going to, the protocols in play for this is a Medjordose pack, which is an anti-inflammatory medication, as you know. We're going to hit them up with that. Back off of his throwing, he'll start the season on the DL. And to get him going back on track, it just feels like between the inflammation holding him back from as he continues, it's like he's working against himself is what we believe is going on right now is he's trying to force now things through. It's creating more inflammation that's preventing him from being fully loose and engaged. And so we need to call time out. And it's as simple as that. We feel it's resolvable. The worry is only that we don't have him available from the beginning. There's not a worry past that. Unfortunately, since opening day is coming, there's always that feeling of everything has to be perfect or everybody has to be ready to go and play. We've been around long enough to know that it doesn't have to be that way. And it shouldn't be that way. What we need to do is make sure we have him right. And so that's what's happening with Dylan Botanzas. And he'll be available to talk to you after today's game. Brian, is this more of a measure to protect him from trying to rush to be ready early? I think it's more of a measure of us reacting to all the new information. So again, you evaluate what you see on the field. In his case, you're seeing the radar guns. We know that he's had a history in the past of slow starting. But this was a little bit more longer and more significant than we recall. And then all of our historical information showed. So we've continued to pepper him up with questions. And so again, he's searching for answers like we are. And so it led to a collaborative effort of shared information, which is maybe he didn't think it was as big a deal. But maybe he did acknowledge that he didn't throw as consistently and as much as he didn't pass winners. So it set him back. We thought it was a gap that he could close rather quickly, which probably has worked against him, which has caused this right shoulder impingement. And now that last outing, I think, was, I think, an example of it's not getting better. It's actually maybe even getting a little worse then. And we're inflaming the situation by running them out there on your normal protocols and pitching programs. So we need to give it a timeout and hit it with an anti-inflammatory so we can restart that clock. I'm not saying restart the clock from the beginning, but just restart the clock by getting the information out so you can get full extension and be back on track and be the dealing that we're used to seeing. And if it takes an extra 15 days or more, I don't have a time frame on it, so be it. I don't think this is a long situation. I just think it's one that I think it's best for us to react to now. How long has he shut down for? It's a good question. The Medridose pack usually is, I think, a five or six day process. I think he can throw on flat ground during that process, but I don't believe he'll throw off a mound, in my opinion. But now, I hate to say this, I usually don't riff like this, but I'd say it's probably going to keep him off the mound for the week. But I do think he can flat ground throw programs. And then get him going again. That's my initial thought. But I've had a lot of different meetings going on today, and they're all good. But it's prevented me from asking that good question that you just asked. But he had the life stuff, what's more important than the offseason. But would you guys know that he was kind of taking those breaks from the off-season? No, as you know, his typical winner is he, a lot of times, he'd go down to the Dominican Republic for an extended period of time. So again, when they're away from you and doing their off-season programs and they have the protocols, and you stay in touch with them, but obviously with the breaks and stuff, I can't fault them for being a father first and expected father first. And I don't think any of this, from his expectation, was going to be problematic. But now that we're here, you start trying to do the CSI the Bronx and recreate, like, all right, well, how'd we get here? And this is all, I'm just sharing with you the narrative that within the last 24 to 48 hours, we've been trying to piece together. As our pitching coach, he pushed them back. I think you guys all saw that he was scheduled potentially to throw yesterday, but that was an old schedule that got torn up and pushed back and adjusted already. And obviously, you saw something that wasn't accurate recently, but he still was listed despite being changed. But you've seen us trying to make adjustments. And typically, you want to throw through this stuff and build arm strength. But again, when you start piecing other puzzle pieces and new data points together with, again, the velo that you're seeing or the lack of velo you're seeing, as well as the new narrative of, listen, maybe I didn't throw as well as I typically or as much as I consistently did in years past. And all these things are contributing. And the offer up, hey, we can do a more of an invasive test. It wasn't a die contrast. It was just a regular MRI. You can see what shows up there. And if there's something there, if you're open to that. Because when he starts talking about, like, I'm not sure if I'm getting full extension, I feel a little weak. Something maybe restricting not my words, not necessarily his. But why can't he get, in his mind, fully extended? What's preventing that? That's where that extra velo is going to be coming from and building from. So that's why they thought, oh, as well, we can do an MRI and see if there's something else going on here that hasn't declared itself as pain. And thankfully, it just showed inflammation that we feel we can address with the anti-inflammatory medication. And then just turn back the clock a little bit and then reset and restart and get him going. And our expectation is, sooner than later, you're going to see the delin that you're used to seeing rather than the delin we've been seeing right now. Question about Jonathan, although I see that, this situation, all the time, let's see who the one is. No, I'm told impingement is really a different word for inflammation. It's kind of a similar thing. So. Geo? He's here. Okay. Yeah, he got here earlier and he took a physical and he's passed. So he'll now go into the Larry Rothschild university program and see where it takes us. You any more, less encouraged with Hicks, how he feels, anything? Said he feels better, but he's not really doing anything yet. So, I mean, so I feel good by that, but until he's doing what he's doing, you know, what we're used to seeing him do, you know, it's too early to tell. But again, expectations are that his situation's resolvable or is on the verge of resolving. And yeah, but that's what you say when you're sitting in this spot right now, regardless. Between Severino, Hicks, Delin, do you feel like you're taking some major hits early or maybe dodged some bigger bullets? Taking hits, but there are also things that you expect to, you know, it's not the way you would draw it up, but at the same time, it's part of a playing season where you're gonna be down for a period of time. So when you're dealing with them, you know, then there's degree of hits and these are resolvable ones. These have timing, expiration timing tags to them. For that, you're thankful. You'd rather not be going through any of it, but when you are going through it and, you know, then you think, well, things could be worse, they could be worse. These are resolvable and we'll be getting, you know, some high-ceiling, talented, contributing players that are part of the reason you're gonna have success. You know, although they're down now, they're gonna be coming back. And that's my information that I can convey to our fans through you. And at the same time, it's gonna create opportunities for others to step up or fill in the gaps. And, you know, whether it's a Lou Isaaco or a Hermon or a Sessa or, you know, who, you know, does this resolve in the short term the choice of one of the other first basements being on the club or where's Tyler Wade fit in on these circumstances where Clint Frazier fits into these circumstances and who gets opportunities and how do you reconfigure and, you know, there's a reason the team was built a certain way. So we would be protected a lot of different ways. And, you know, it's gonna get tested whether it's early, middle or late and right now in some cases it'll be tested early. So be it, you're not afraid of it. No, it's not what you prefer, but you know it's there and it's coming all the time. And so, you know, we'll deal with it. Okay, guys, hands almost over. We'll be back. We'll be right back. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
