It does seem like Tetsuya Imai could push past the price tag that Ranger Suarez is billed at and Fromer Valdez is billed at, but there's more and more coming out about Imai's market that he may be interested in this, he may not be interested in this. It seems like the Phillies are involved, it seems like the Mets could be involved. Oh well, now the Cubs are involved here. Do you feel like the Mets or really any other team is kind of the favorite to go grab the more fascinating pitcher on the market, the most unknown pitcher on the market? I don't know if the Mets are necessarily the favorite. I don't know if my falls under the context of, oh, we, we don't wanna do the long-term deals, because it seems like he's gonna get, I think, north of 5. I honestly think we could see him might get a 7-year deal even. I, I, I think he has age on his side, and sometimes in free agency, a little bit of the unknown can kind of play to your benefit as well, where there's not any. Uh, knocks on his resume other than just a question of will he translate, but the stuff obviously is great, the age really plays in, and I think he's also probably exciting some teams with his comments, talking about wanting to beat the Dodgers, talking about, you know, being eager to get to that MLB competition. I, I think he's gonna get a pretty big contract, and honestly, I think he probably gets. I would say the largest total guarantee of the starting pitchers left on the market. I still think Framber would beat him on AAV, but I, I think there's a good chance this guy ends up with 7 years, and it's gonna be well north of what Kodaenga and Shoda Eminaga got. It's not gonna come close to Yoshinobu Yamamoto, but he's gonna get a pretty good deal.
