 J thinning off the bat Greg bird. Do you think that that's a grand slam right there? Yes, I did. I was really proud of him He was prepared for the situation that we wanted him in and Get it back right there. And it's just kind of been the last couple weeks for him right there He's the balls that he has hit hard have kind of been caught, but Encouraged by the bat quality. I know you use both Walker and bird as pinch hit options in that inning Did you guys go into today saying that it was a no-day for Stanton or was he available? No, he was available, but we were gonna make sure that it was to either win the game or and we you know Thought the matchup was good for birdie right there. If we would have got to Higgy in the ninth G prior to hit right there, but if you don't mind just talking a little bit into the mic. Thank you Today was a struggle for Lance Lynn. He faced 20 batters 10 of them reached base What's your assessment what you saw from him? You know, I think that you know, we like the matchup as far as the sinker today and it seemed like You know, it was getting a little bit of the plate and you know, the balls they threw down and in we're Seeming to get down the third baseline and a couple of the balls that Ray has blocked down the third baseline. So again You know rough day for him, but you know, we believe in him a lot and he's gonna be a big part of this thing moving forward I know this is not your decision, but Brian Cashman is fond of saying Everyone is constantly evaluated Do you think with Lynn's struggles in his last four the area is over nine that the next time that rotation spot comes Around there'll be some discussion about what you guys have to do I just think what we try to do here is put guys in the best possible, you know Match up and the best possible way to succeed. So when we get to that point, we'll see Dan to the left Going with Tarpley there in the ninth with after you know after the little bit of the rally Was there any discussion with going with you know, someone else in the bullpen? I mean we if we would have got to within you know, two we were talking about going to greener right there But you know with leverage right there and you know We want him to get his feet wet and get out there and to be honest with you I think he gave up, you know four ground balls and an aligned drive So at the end of the day, you know, we we were trying to reset our bullpen a little bit today because we've been riding those guys Pretty hard and partly because we've been winning a lot of games, you know Wally Josh just to clarify on the decision to use bird there and the eighth any Because that would have put that was a go-ahead that bat there was that basically a matchup decision? yes, and I think that there was a little bit of we were trying to give G a day and You know at the end of the if we would have had a matchup that we really really liked for G He probably would have hit there, but we like the matchup there and birdie hit the ball hard Susan Greg has had really no results, but has hit the ball really hard for the blasts released last week How do you keep the confidence up when you don't have the results there? I just think that for him. He's got to keep fighting, you know I mean this is the big leagues and and you know Luke's really been productive and We're gonna try to pick our spots to find areas for both of them And I think that the at-bat quality has been better for birdie and and so I hope he takes that in his encouragement But he's gonna have to fight for it all the way to the left Dave Josh Did you would do is a green up at the one point? It was okay. Was anybody else up at that point? He just him green just just green and tarp Lee and you know down three in the ninth We're not gonna bring in one of our hot leverage guys Julio in the middle. How do you evaluate the Tiberias defense today? I thought it was great Yeah, I mean I think that he's gonna be a huge huge part of what we're gonna do here And I think that you know last yesterday He doesn't touch the ball and we win the game because he's in the game because we can put You know waiter at second and then we can move guys over and GT goes to second makes a great play yesterday So he's he's a big part of this Anyone else Jack Josh you guys have been a dominant team at home this year second best record in the major leagues You finished this homestand three and four what did you think about the way you guys played across the last week? You know, I think it was frustrating because you know we coming in against Detroit You know it's a team that really chases a lot and we had a we had a hard time expanding on them And and if you look at it, they didn't really you know hit a bunch of home runs and stuff But they kind of singled us to death and and we had a hard time as far as getting that But you know it's it's part of the ebbs and flows of the season and we got to get ready for the flight across country and Get ready to go tomorrow Anyone else walley. Yes, Josh just out of curiosity. When did you find out you were managing today? And what was the experience like considering the kind of game it turned out to be yesterday and you know It's really no different. I mean our process, you know stays the same and and so yeah Okay, thank you Josh
