Right.

It's, yeah, Adames and Devers, a lot of the guys who are underperforming.

[lips smack] And I don't, I don't know, I can't...

I don't wanna say he's had issues with the vet.

I, I think he's been very well-received in the clubhouse.

I think guys like him.

I think what we saw from Devers was maybe a sign that he doesn't have the highest amount of respect.

Do you think if they were to change their mind from what Buster Posey said, are you more in the camp that it would signal a message of this is not gonna be a competitive baseball team for some time?

Sure.

You know, there are only two teams who have the exception from the league to wear the caps on these nights.

It's the Giants and the Dodgers, and there's a reason for that because it's, it caused issues in the past when teams have asked players to wear these, you know, rainbow symbols supporting the gay community when a large portion [laughs] of baseball players are religious Christian conservatives who maybe have issues with, with, with that and, uh, and are uncomfortable wearing that symbol o- on their caps despite, you know, the importance of having that night, right? You know, I, I...

There's been a lot of discussions from just internally talking to folks about why are we still wearing the caps? It's causing more issues and overshadowing all of the good on that day by having the distraction that follows all of the awesome, you know, uh, uh, festivities, you know, the renewal of vows pre-game.

I mean, it was, it's a great day and an important day and it's a, a hugely important day for the organization.

You know, the oldest, uh, uh, ongoing, you know, uh, uh, you know, recognition of the, of the, the gay community of any professional sports organization.

And I know a lot of people inside the Giants organization feel like they're losing a lot of that goodwill that they have built up over the course of these 30-plus years doing this night.

What is different? What, what has he figured out? Is this the same guy?

Yeah, I mean, he's making contact and lifting the ball in the air and, and I mean, the, the power that he has is so much different it feels like than the, than what he had when he came up with.

I am just, on this road trip specifically, I've been, gotten a chance to watch batting practice quite a bit and it seems like every other swing he takes in BP the ball is leaving the yard.

Uh, and he's j- it just seems like he's so locked in.Uh, and, and it's, it's coming on a pretty big sample size now too.

We're, you know, more than 200 plate appearances into the season.

We're into June, and, and he's just keeping going, a- and getting better.

And, uh, you know, he's still not walking a lot, right? Like, that was kind of all, all built into his game.

But where, where do you see those moves? How did, how did you things k- see things kind of playing out last night?
