00:00That's why you need a floor and a cap.
00:01You don't need a floor and a cap because somebody's winning this year.
00:04If you change the entire focus of what you're doing because of what's happening this year,
00:08then you got bamboozled.
00:11And you guys are allowing this question to be changed.
00:13No.
00:14Can you?
00:15The Orioles problem right now is, oh, can we keep Gunnar Henderson?
00:19Can we keep this guy?
00:20Can we keep that guy?
00:21Those are the greatest questions you're asking.
00:23But you shouldn't have to ask those questions.
00:25You don't have to ask those questions in football.
00:26The only reason you ask that question in football is if somebody just wants to leave.
00:30It's not affordability.
00:33We didn't know whether we'd keep Lamar because we didn't know Lamar wanted to stay.
00:37It wasn't that we couldn't afford him.
00:38Who did the Dodgers trade for this year?
00:40Tariq Scoobles?
00:41Yeah.
00:41The Tigers were in the playoffs last year.
00:43Had a chance to make the playoffs this year.
00:45And what?
00:46They said we can't afford him.
00:47And you know what happened?
00:48Tariq Scoobles said, I want to sign with the Dodgers.
00:50So where did he go?
00:51No other team got in on that.
00:53No other team traded for him.
00:54You know that you don't want to stay here?
00:55And I love all these people going, well, you could have traded for him and then tried
00:58to get him to stay.
00:59Who wants to take that chance?
01:00He said.
01:01He said.
01:02And the Dodgers didn't even give up.
01:04They didn't even give up any of their great pieces to go get this guy.
