So yeah, I think, I think you're right, like pulling, pulling Griffin when you did, 'cause I think you're 100% right.
Jeff EllisHOST
I mean, don't be, pull up Ben Lively, honestly, if you need someone tomorrow.
Jeff EllisHOST
Like, you can do that if you have someone.
Justin LadaHOST
You don't need someone tomorrow for Friday.
Jeff EllisHOST
Like, don't be afraid to go to the pen, 'cause you can get Lively up here.
Jeff EllisHOST
You can go get Nick.

Fair.
Davey BarrisHOST
Color me very concerned.
Davey BarrisHOST
Is it time for Ben Lively?" Bob asks.
Davey BarrisHOST
Um, you know, I looked into this.
Davey BarrisHOST
Lively is pitching at Triple-A, although it doesn't look like he's starting.
Davey BarrisHOST
Maybe you could use him.
Davey BarrisHOST
Uh, maybe you could piggyback someone off him.
Davey BarrisHOST
Like, you could piggyback Slade Sacconi off him if Ben Lively goes three innings and Sacconi goes three innings, and then you get into your bullpen.
Davey BarrisHOST
You could do something like that.
Adam TriggerHOST
He has one of the lowest walk rates in the league, and he's hitting all his spots.
Adam TriggerHOST
He's – Right now, what he's doing is similar to what Ben Lively did a couple years ago when he went on this crazy run for the Guardians, where his command was so perfect that he was really hard to hit.
Adam TriggerHOST
Now, someone like this, if he starts missing by just a little bit, he's going to get destroyed.
Adam TriggerHOST
That's how this is going to go.
Andy BaskinHOST
I got one minute left.
Andy BaskinHOST
Just a quick update on, like, I forgot about Ben Lively, I'm going to be honest, and then Slade Ciccone, and then he brought him up the other day.
Andy BaskinHOST
Thoughts on whether we'll see those guys in September?
Chris AssenheimerGUEST
Yeah, that's interesting.
