 Meredith, go ahead and unmute. Hi, DJ, welcome back. Thanks. Can you describe what your experience was like with coronavirus? I mean, didn't really have any symptoms. Very surprised I tested positive. I was lucky I wasn't really in contact with, with hardly anyone, you know, when I got the news. So, but pretty slow. I mean, really didn't do a whole lot. Just kind of hung out and tried to get those negative tests and get back here as soon as I could. Erin Boone mentioned yesterday that you were able to do a little bit of working out. What exactly did you do during that span when you were waiting for the negative test? Yeah, I mean the first couple of weeks since I didn't really have any symptoms, I was kind of like just kind of taking it easy and just making sure I, you know, didn't get symptoms and then kind of the last week, just taking swings off the tee and moving around a little bit. Not a whole lot, but you know, as much as I could do, kind of, you know, close by to the house. How long do you think it will take you to build yourself up to be able to play nine innings and do you think opening day is a possibility for you? I think it's a possibility. You know, I don't know if it's realistic or not. I think that's going to be up to the trainers and to Booney. But I think I'm going to be pretty close. If it's not opening day, it'll definitely be the first few games. But you know, we'll see. We'll see how these few days go. And for me, it's just going to be the live at bats the more I can get the more ready I'll be. Thank you, Jay. Take the next question from Brendan Cutty. Brendan, go ahead. DJ, thanks for taking the time and I'm glad you're well. What is it about the live at bats that really, you know, is important to you? Is it the timing? Is it just making sure you're in game shape? And also, how do you feel about being ready for nine innings? That's why games for a couple of weeks now? Yeah, I think I think I think the live at bats is just kind of getting that mental process going again. Kind of get the mental process, the timing down a little bit. I mean, I've been taking BP for, you know, in Tampa for the previous three months. So physically, I feel pretty good. It's going to be kind of the timing and then, you know, ramping up for nine innings physically, you know, we do have an off day there after opening day and then a couple of sprinkled in. But, you know, that's part of the season. I think everyone's going to be, it's going to be different for everybody. So, you know, for me, it's going to be no different. Thank you. Bruce Beck, good to see you. Go right ahead and unmute. Thank you very much, DJ. Welcome back. Thanks. DJ, how do you balance trying to get ready as quickly as possible with also being focused on staying sharp for the 60 day of season? Yeah, you know, you know, I want to do as much as I can without overdoing it. So just, you know, for me, just getting to the field early, checking in with our trainers and, you know, just keep pushing the envelope a little bit and get ready as quick as I can. Thank you. Next question from Christy Eckert. Christy, go ahead. To see you back. Hey DJ, just curious what the process of you at home getting ready to come to New York when you tested positive or was it a test that you took on your own or was it an intake test for the league? It was a test on my own. I had been in contact with someone who was positive and so I just got a test just to, you know, my dad is, I wanted to see my dad, but I didn't want to see him until I got tested and, you know, tested positive and got a call four or five days later and obviously really shocked. But yeah, it was on my own. Were you able to go see your dad after that? Have you seen him yet? Yeah, yeah, he came and sat on the porch a few nights and then once I tested negative, got to hang out and my wife tested negative three times and she was fine. So like I said, I'm glad I wasn't, you know, hanging out with a bunch of people while I did test positive and I was cautious. Take the next question from Sweeney Murdy. Sweeney, go ahead. DJ, a lot of your teammates have been talking about just the effort it's going to take to stay disciplined and try to get through the season. Now that you've joined them, what do you think that process is going to be like? They've talked about just having this goal of winning in mind and that's going to help them. Is that your primary thoughts right now? Yeah, you know, I'm glad we're in New York kind of going through the spring training again because we kind of get used to the new rules and the new protocols and, you know, getting used to being kind of different than we're used to. And, you know, my few days here, obviously, you know, I think for everyone being as cautious as they are, I think everyone's, you know, doing the right things. And, you know, I trust everyone's doing the right things to be healthy and to get through this season. And being around the guys, I can see a lot of positivity, a lot of optimism, a lot of excitement for the season. So really it's been the couple of days I've been here now. It's, you know, I'm really excited to get going with the guys again. DJ, you've averaged almost 150 games a year in the last few years. What do you think it's going to feel like to, you know, 60 or less? Yeah, it's going to be weird. It's definitely a sprint this year. And like I said, there's a lot of excitement. And I know it's going to be different for us. It's going to be different for everybody. So we're really excited. I think this is a special group. I said last year this team is more than talented. There's a special thing here. And I think that's going to really help us in this, you know, weird 60 game year. Thank you, DJ. Yep. Take another. Marlee Rivera, go ahead. Hi, DJ. Very happy to see you healthy. First things first, did testing positive, you just said that it was a huge surprise to you doing it? Did it change your perspective at all and what this virus can do or even in maybe considering playing this season? No, no. No, I was just waiting to get those negatives. It was surprising. It was shocking. You know, it was like, I don't, you know, it was just a shocking news to get that. But, you know, it's definitely a scary thing. You know, when you have something that there's no cure for, it's obviously scary. But, you know, after those first few days and feeling fine and, you know, so much support from, you know, teammates and family, just kind of, you know, after a couple of weeks, I was ready to go again and couldn't be more excited to be back. Thank you, DJ. George King, you're up next. Go ahead. Did you test positive in Michigan? Yeah, in Michigan. Yep. Thank you. Jake Siner, go ahead and unmute. You've got the next question. Hey, DJ, I can see you back. You have a couple of teammates who have said that they're going to wear masks on the field and amount of abundance and caution. I want to ask somebody who's had this, what your thoughts are on that and also your thoughts for you personally wearing a mask and what it's like having already had this enters into the population for that? You know, I'm probably not going to wear a mask. You know, for me, I think this game is really, really hard. So to wear a mask, I don't know, I'm, you know, but the guys who are wearing it, I definitely respect. And, you know, I think it's a very safe environment. You know, like I said, being here for a couple of days, I think it's about as safe as it can get. But at the same time, guys are going back to their families and to wear a mask, I got no problem with. And I got no problem with guys opting out either. You know, I know how scary this thing is. And, you know, we always say family first. So if guys are, you know, everyone's going back to their families or loved ones. And I got, you know, I respect those guys that are going above and beyond to stay protected and keep those around healthy. Pete Caldera, go right ahead. You're up next. DJ, what baseball activity are you doing today? And what were you expected to face in life? Today, I'm just going through normal BP practice, doing some running, running the bases. Going to kind of test it out a little bit today, get after it a little bit. And live pitching, I don't know. We'll see. I haven't really talked to Boonee yet today about it. But, you know, Boonee's been great. You know, he wants to, you know, make sure I'm ready, but also ready to play at a high level. So, you know, hopefully another good day today and we'll see where we're at tomorrow. Take a final question from Brian Hoek. Hi DJ, you mentioned that you had to keep taking the test until you got the negative. How many tests did you have to take? How long was that process? I was taking a test almost every other day. So I think I ended up having about 11 or 12 tests. And it was weird because I tested negative and then positive and then negative and then negative and negative. So, you know, it was frustrating because I was feeling 100% normal and still every morning I'd wake up at 7 o'clock to see the result and it was positive. So, you know, yeah, you know, pretty much every other day there for two, three weeks. And do you have any guesses where this all started for you? No, no, I have no idea. You know, I don't know. I'm not sure at all.
