00:00I'll just say this as far as Darvish.
00:05You know, if you get yourself into a playoff run and you're you Darvish and you are somewhere
00:10in this world and you are dealing with a family issue, that's what they're calling it.
00:14The rumors have been that somebody in his family is very ill and that he's home being
00:18with his family member.
00:19If that's the case, super honorable.
00:22The other part of it is to leave the team and be willing to say, I'm not, I'm not going
00:27to be here.
00:28I'm not going to be performing.
00:29I'm dealing with my own personal issue and I'm not going to be paid during this time.
00:32Also a very honorable thing by Darvish.
00:35But at some point, if you are very much live in this playoff race and I don't mean to sound
00:42insensitive in the slightest bit, but at some point, but don't you want to come back?
00:48I mean, don't you want to be part of this and don't you want to help?
00:51But the question though, it becomes this, you know, if, if let's just say this, let's
00:54say he's home.
00:56Let's say he's in Japan and if the rumors are true, brother has cancer.
01:01And let's say he's, he's there and he's, he's with family.
01:04Is he working out?
01:05Is he staying in shape?
01:06Is he throwing the ball?
01:07I think that's the point.
01:08Could he possibly contribute this year?
01:09I think that, I think the San Diego Padres, AJ Preller being the guy I'm talking to must
01:13operate on the fact that he is not coming back with like at what point will they close
01:19the door on that?
01:20Because I think that I don't know, I don't know when, but I'm saying right now, four
01:24hours before the trade deadline, you Darvish is not coming back.
01:27That's the way I'm thinking.
01:28If I'm AJ Preller, I think that's what you have to think.
01:31You have to.
01:32Yeah.
01:33You can't assume that he's going to come back.
01:34Cause even if he said, if he called you next week and he said, Hey, I'm ready to come back
01:36and be like, okay, well we'll probably need you to get back into shape over the course
01:39of the next one.
01:40A program.
01:41Yeah.
01:42Yeah.
01:43I mean, it's going to take a while.
01:44And then when he comes back, what do you get?
01:45Who knows?
01:46Right.
01:47Yeah.
