 Aaron Boone. Hey Aaron. Hi. How are you doing? Well, how are you? Great. Great. Aaron. What stood out most to you about Masahiro Tanaka through his three excellent innings today? Um, everything. I thought fastball command with with mixing in the cut fastball, the velocity on the fastball. Um, I thought I thought he threw some good splitters. I thought he'd get good feel for the set for the breaking ball, dropping it in for a strike. I thought I thought he was really, really sharp actually for and about as efficient as you can be for those three innings. Yeah, Aaron, is that that's obviously a new little wrinkle with that cut fastball? I saw something about 90 miles an hour, 88 to 90 really effective on left handed batters is that's something he's gotten into the laboratory and sort of adjusted his grip on or anti petted influence. Yeah, he's he's definitely working diligently at it in here in spring to make it a factor. You know, against lefties, you know, he keeps it a little more flat against righties that, you know, has a little more little downward action on it. Um, but it's definitely something he's been committed to down here to give him another pitch. And, you know, especially against lefties, they give him that just a little other weapon to, you know, maybe have a little presence on the inside part of the plate and and to set up the splitter even more. Aaron, I know Brian Cashman addressed it before the game today, but what is the latest with Aaron Judge? Encouraging. I mean, especially when you consider where we were, you know, a few days ago, you know, we're really just seeking for answers. He's he's continuing to go through finish the battery of tests we got going on. So we want to make sure we, you know, kind of turn over everything and make sure we're tapping into this. But I do feel like there's been some pretty good progress, um, the last few days, um, to where he's feeling much better today. Um, so it's it's encouraging, but we're going to make sure we, you know, kind of try and get every answer we can possible to really try and pinpoint it and hopefully put this issue behind us. Yeah. I mean, on the roster now, and obviously you have players that can play multi positions Tyler Wade can handle the outfield in a pinch, but you really have only three true outfielders right now. I mean, are you comfortable that you can find? Is that brings some of the non roster outfielders into play for opening day? Are you comfortable that you've got enough coverage now? Well, I mean, Mickey continues to show us that he's he is potentially going to be a real option out there. Um, you know, talk man, the agent today, but you know, I would count him as a fourth and and and I'm not ready to rule out Aaron either, especially considering the improvements we've seen on the last couple of days. So we'll we'll cross that bridge kind of when we get there. Um, you know, we do feel like we're we're covered and we'll we'll figure it out. And then hopefully, you know, between Aaron between John Carlo, um, it's not a long term situation. So we'll have really good options that had obviously Aaron. Is there anything specific you'll need to see from Miguel and do hard to feel like, okay, we can start with him in a game in the outfield regular season right away. Are you ready there? As her shell gets out of second relay not in time. Um, I think it's him continuing to gain experience. You know, I mean, that's the only that's really the thing he's missing now is I think this is about the fourth game we've had him out there. Everything we've seen so far has been really encouraged. I mean, the work behind the scenes has been really good. The way he's looked in the outfield in these games, the way he's moved, the way he catches the ball out there. Um, all suggests that he's going to be able to do this. So I think the biggest thing now is just continuing to gain those game reps and that game experience that you know, you are hard to replicate. So the more he can get out there, but I'm feeling confident that he's going to be able to handle it. No, we talked a lot about the young pitchers. You know, I get a little geeked out when I see young guys like Clark Schmidt out there and the stuff I see. And I know it's got to excite you and man Blake as well. And I know Rafael Devers shot him here and he's going to learn that some of these Red Sox big league hitters are good fastball hitters, especially first pitch. But yeah, that was a little welcome to the, you know, what a great hitter up here looks like and, you know, trying to sneak a little mid 90s fastball. You better locate it well or, you know, you get, get your feelings hurt. But what was impressive was just how he came and continued to make pitches and you see that breaking ball right there that guys routinely either swing and miss that or a good left hand hitter and Ben attendee, you know, kind of checks swing at it's that the curve balls are real weapon. But but you see how he reacts to anything that goes on the mound success, failure, whatever. He's not fazed by it. And he has a presence out there. He's confident and understandably so with the stuff he represents. But that curve ball looks really, really impressive. It's flicked down the left field line foul. Aaron, how about David Garcia? What have you seen from him thus far this camp? I've seen why, you know, why we're excited about him and why he was able to kind of rock it through the system last year at such a young age and get all the way to AAA. And, you know, I had to start the other day where he was really good for four or five hitters, had a no two count lost a guy and gave up a Homer. But but there was way more good. And, you know, he's able to he's got a real good feel for spinning the ball. Another guy with a really good breaking ball kind of has that pitch ability can add and subtract a little bit with the fastball and has that little bit of poise and presence. And there's an intelligence to what he's doing. So he's continued to excite us. And so is this young man as he strikes out to in the ending. Aaron, thank you for the time. Thanks, guys.
