I think, yeah, 59 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:08,520 Speaker 3: maybe a couple more opportunities to do it and and uh, 60 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,680 Speaker 3: a couple of newer drills I tried to incorporate. But 61 00:03:12,800 --> 00:03:14,919 Speaker 3: I'd say that's, you know, probably part of the part 62 00:03:14,960 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 3: of my training every off season. 63 00:03:16,680 --> 00:03:19,679 Speaker 5: You spent last season Joe and Feliciano, and now you've 64 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 5: got John Michael and Ben both snapp And is a 65 00:03:23,040 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 5: snap a snap or do you have to adjust to 66 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,000 Speaker 5: them or they have to adjust the. 67 00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 2: Year or what? 68 00:03:29,720 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 3: I think there's a little bit of adjustment initially early 69 00:03:33,320 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 3: on and then kind of once you're once you're into 70 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 3: it and you build a chemistry and a and a 71 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,480 Speaker 3: uh you know, rapport someone, you're used to it, and 72 00:03:40,520 --> 00:03:42,760 Speaker 3: it's not really something you think about.
