going so far it’s going pretty well yeah trying to soak it all in it’s uh a lot kind of going on but it’s a it’s fun time right now yeah no kidding uh adley second time doing this second time starter um a little bit more relaxed this time around than last time yeah definitely uh it feels like the whole process feels like a little easier and you know I can kind of like lead Gunner around and uh you know it’s been fun he’s showing you the ropes yeah been kind of he’s been telling me uh what to do kind of how to get stuff signed and stuff and really just uh don’t don’t be afraid to put stuff out there to get signed to kind of commemorate the experience I agree with that because that was one big thing when I made allar team they’re like get everything signed because and then now I look back I’m you know I was moving going through my my attic and I’m like wow all this stuff from guys like that’s memories for a lifetime you’ll have it’s pretty cool well I have all my memories from double A All-Star Game this is Player of the Year in 97 was a big deal they almost got me out there year let’s get right to the Home Run Derby last night harder than people think unbelievable job that you guys do out there because people don’t realize how hard is to hit homers we’re used to kind of the cage and we’re used to hitting million with the and then you do an unbelievable job here and the best part about this stuff is that you got your teammates that are around to help you and Tow you off and give you sips of water talk to us how tiring it is people don’t realize how tiring it is to swing and swing and swing yeah I mean my legs after that time out it felt like I’ve been running for about two hours straight so uh yeah it’s uh definitely a fun experience but uh you don’t realize how tired you get until you actually do it and you helping them out absolutely that’s a big deal yeah yeah I mean it’s like I think you do the practice rounds in the derby and then you get out there and the adrenaline that hits you like those first couple swings you’re exhausted how do you know when to take the time out like was there like a you have a or like as soon as I feel as soon as I feel like I can’t breathe yeah that and uh whenever you kind of get off Rhythm it feel like is when uh when it’s a good time to call it so uh felt like didn’t really get into a good one but uh yeah felt like it was a good time to call it last night why did you go with the Scooby-Doo bat um so as a as a little kid it was my favorite show and then um I’ve been able to do I’m sure everybody’s seen it by now but uh been able to do the good Scooby-Doo impression so um yeah we uh we had that going for us last night so so like if I hold on if I was like zo like hey scuba what kind of bat are you using yeah that’s that’s a good one right there yeah but uh is yours better he does Scooby I mean I I do the Scooby I can’t do Shaggy very well but yeah the is your impression better than that uh probably hey let’s ask one oal question though but your boys man it’s fun to watch obviously I was there we were the door mats of Baltimore 6078 then we finally got some good players there like y’all but talk to us about because the day you stepped on the field the big leagues bro you had that leadership quality I played with Jason veritech who you remind me a lot of switch hitting catcher and just a dude how’s your team oh I mean well were you waiting for a better a question for me no no no no no I sorry I don’t know why I like like froze up no no no it’s not a specialty don’t worry no I I was waiting for the question but no we got we got some really good dudes on our team like I mean you see Gunner here dude’s just polished like great B basball player great human uh the guys on a team like they just care about each other and like they pick each other up and when you’re playing a season as long as we do like you got to have that like day in and day out like guys just like picking each other up uh and we got that and you got a great leader in Brandon Hyde y like this guys just like you guys all coming up together through the minor leagues Haider stuck out the tough times while you guys were developing talk about his leadership because we saw him the other night sticking up in the biggest way possible and I love the guy as a human being as much as I do a manager and you guys have an awesome manager in Brandon Hy yeah he’s been awesome ever since I first came up he’s been really helpful and uh especially in the first part of last year when I was going through that struggle he was really helpful on my end of things just kind of helping me get through it and uh yeah I can’t say enough good things about him he’s been uh really helpful to my development so far I think you got a great trainer too and Brian Eble he was my trainer and I used to kind of butt naked and get there and sit down get my ankles tape I know it sounds weird just after a shower you get your angles tapes here it’s not a big deal I do want to ask you you’re hitting second I Paul sches and uh you have to have an approach going to Paul sches are you ambushing the 101 early thinking left Center or what do we got now what’s your game plan uh I like to say it’s easier said I mean uh yeah everything yeah everything’s fun everything’s really firm so it’s uh GNA be a tough match up but uh one that I’m looking forward to so and ATL you to get to catch for your teammate Corbin Burns what is the game with him obviously you’re going to go uh Marte Otani Trey in the first so you’re just going to it’s going to be a one two three right that’s what we’re going for that would be like ideal situation uh if that doesn’t happen then we’ll get the next guy out um he’s I mean obviously a phenomenal pitcher and uh It’ll like it feels very comfortable catch him so I’m looking forward to just C hey was that a little extra special like you know like you get to start the All-Star Game and you’re wondering we didn’t find out till a couple days ago that you starting like you fingers crossed obviously and hoping and then what did that feel like when your own starter is going to be the one throwing to you oh it’s like the best feeling cuz I know we’re going to go out and like do like our normal routine like it’s just another like another game uh so I’m really excited for that and um yeah how nasty is this cutter oh it’s I mean it’s I would say the word would be grotesque grotesque would be the word I would use I like that description there we go it’s a it’s very it’s hard to catch hard to hit you know so uh I think that’s how you know it’s good do you keep a thesaurus around just in case no no I what they teach at Oregon State yeah that’s just hey that’s premier right there yeah it’s just my beavers don’t just build dams you know what I mean they can speak well they build books too you guys uh you hit the red carpet and let’s take a look at your outfits we we need to know the inspo behind that I like what adley said he said I went bold you know like weren’t sure but then you knew it was going to look good stepped out of your comfort zone a little bit correct yeah yeah I’m I’m having a tough time hearing over here but like talking about red carpet red carpet absolutely yeah I think that’s what it’s all about just trying to you know trying to shake things up and have something that looks interesting on pictures so yeah you can just kind of see me you know Meandering about there not really knowing what to do and like sneaky hot Meandering about you talking about me or she came in
