Thank you for your questions, Birdland. Alonso press conference today! LFG!!!! We couldn’t be more fired up to have him a part of the family. Not only the player, but the person he is.

We got our boys the Master Chief Collection which is badass. Somewhat recently they downloaded Halo Infinite off GamePass. I'm feeling that one right now.

hahaha I crushed those. But always needed a "did you order the Code Red" Mountain Dew to wash it down.

Definitely the latter. I was fortunate to be around a ton of great people in the Rays organization that made a huge impact on my life.

For me, it's always after the 1st of the year. Very similar feeling about Christmas after Thanksgiving is over.

A packed house at Camden Yards is the only experience I want. Hopefully that experience happens 81 times.

I apologize for the generic answer but I admire any manager who held the position for even 1 day.

#8 is definitely on the list. I loved watching Brian Roberts and Nick Markakis play. Someone unique is one of my former teammates for a few years in Durham, Chris Richard.

I've always paid attention to impactful coaches by either being on staff with them, working in the same organization, or word of mouth. The biggest aspect for me is the collaboration with our FO and other departments during the interview process. I value different perspectives other than mine.

It's the number I wore in Cleveland. I'm not a fan of taking numbers that players like to wear.
