3:29pm: Toro will make $1MM if in the majors, per Chris Cotillo of MassLive.
9:50am: The Red Sox and free agent infielder Abraham Toro have agreed to a minor league contract, reports Daniel Alvarez Montes of El Extra Base. The Republik Sports client receives an invitation to major league spring training.
Toro, who turned 28 last month, was a well-regarded prospect with the Astros who has at times flashed some of that potential in the majors. He posted a roughly league-average batting line and popped 11 homers in 95 games between Houston and Seattle in 2021 — the same season that saw the ’Stros deal him to the M’s in exchange for reliever Kendall Graveman. Toro appeared in 60 games with Seattle following that trade, walking at a slightly above-average clip and fanning in only 13% of his plate appearances during that age-24 season.
At the time, Toro looked like a potential regular for the Mariners, or at the very least an oft-used and versatile semi-regular. The switch-hitter saw his output crater in 2022, however. Toro batted only .185/.239/.324 in 352 plate appearances with the Mariners. The following offseason, he was traded to the Brewers in return for Jesse Winker and Kolten Wong — a move that didn’t pay 2023 dividends for either team.
Toro hit well in Triple-A for the Brewers but never got a real look in the majors, tallying just 21 plate appearances as a Brewer. Milwaukee flipped him to the A’s in the 2023-24 offseason, netting righty Chad Patrick in return. Toro hit .240/.293/.350 in 364 plate appearances with Oakland before being passed through waivers and electing free agency at the beginning of the current offseason.
While Toro has yet to produce in the big leagues (.220/.285/.353), he’s spent the majority of his time in pitchers’ parks like T-Mobile and the Coliseum. He’s a switch-hitter with a career .305/.396/.486 batting line in parts of five Triple-A seasons, and he has experience at third base, second base and (to a lesser extent) first base.
Toro gives the Red Sox some more depth in the infield as the team continues to face a glaring question at second base. Top prospect Kristian Campbell may eventually claim that spot as his own, but he’s versatile enough to handle shortstop or an outfield spot as well. He also still has only 19 games of Triple-A experience under his belt (though he showed brilliantly there). Other second base options for the Red Sox include David Hamilton, Vaughn Grissom, Romy Gonzalez, non-roster invitee Nate Eaton and top prospect Marcelo Mayer. It’s also feasible that oft-injured Trevor Story could move over to second base, though for now he’s still ticketed for regular work at shortstop.
That’s some bull!
Tom – You can’t spell “bathroom” without Abraham Toro.
I like the move. Insurance for Campbell/Grissom.
I like it too but Gonzalez is the forgotten player who was just as surprising (to me) as Hamilton was. I’m hoping either has worked on their defense. I’m surprised Hamilton hasn’t been traded.
dewey – I like RomGon, but it’s a classic situation where with a 3-man bench (plus backup catcher) you can’t have a bench guy who puts up a .498 OPS against RHP.
If they had two more bench spots available, THEN you can carry him all season. I think he may be an early casualty.
Hamilton is a keeper, he had the same WAR as Rafaela in 254 fewer PA’s. His speed makes all the difference.
There’s your 3b replacement, Fever! 😉
Sal – They lost a couple Canadians, so I’m glad they are replacing one of them at least ;O)
Let’s start the queue for snarky comments about the red sox finally getting that lauded ‘right handed hitter’ into the lineup…
And…
Go!
But seriously, as a minor league filler piece, they could do worse. You just wonder where he slots in with everyone in AAA really needing to play almost every day in the middle infield already… maybe 3B, but, for all his shortcomings with the glove, Devers is fairly durable and this kid would never displace him.
I figured if he made the sox roster it would be in a utility role. same with AAA probably spilt time between 2B/3B if campbell or Grissom aren’t ready.
Well, maybe Breslow shouldn’t keep telling us they need/plan to add a right handed bat if they have no plans on acquiring a right handed bat. It’s not rocket surgery.
Until they either start acting like a serious front office again or at least stop pretending to by making all these stupid comments and empty promises, snarky comments are all we got.
Back to being serious, I think Worcester will have plenty of room for Toro at the infield corners. Campbell and Mayer need to be playing every day up the middle if they aren’t with the big team, but they don’t have anyone at first or third down there who looks like even an organizational depth type of big leaguer. I’d have no qualms with him being the every day guy at either or splitting time at both for the WooSox, and if he impresses and the opportunity arises, maybe he can work his way back to being a bench bat in the show.
The right handed bat we really want is Vladdy Junior
Not happening because should he not stay in Toronto, he’s NY bound. Henry will again pretend to be in it but will not pony up at the end.
There’s no sense in having both vlad Jr and Devers on the same ballclub, particularly with Casas around.
Of the current dh or 1b types you’ve got Casas, Devers, and Yoshida already plugging things up. If you want Vlad Jr, fine, but two of the other 3 need to leave town first.
Den – Not sure I want to invest half a billie on a guy who had just an .804 OPS combined in 2022-2023.
Especially if it means moving Casas or Devers off the team.
Denden — If you really want Valid Jr, I’m sure the Blue Jays would accept Casas, Durran, and Yoshida for him.
…maybe at the trade deadline when it’s even more obvious Toronto needs to move him and get something before he too becomes a Dodger.
sorry but he will be a Dodger
Randy — Yeap. They’ll move Freddie to RF, Mookie to 1B, Vlad JR to the bump, and Othani to Catcher.
Grr, Dodgers, grr!
Dirty – I’d really like to know how surgery is performed on a rocket?
And yep as even Kennedy and Breslow have said, they deserve the criticism until they put the team back in contention.
Toro would be a bench glove though, not a bench bat. A career .285 OBP is not something we want starting or pinch hitting in the big leagues.
Fever, rocket surgery involves a nose job, a booster shot and blasting off some of that extra pad we all have.
Very carefully, of course!
Good point about him being a bench glove rather than bat. Bad habit of referring to a guy as a bat just because he’s not a pitcher. He “bats” I guess you could say, but isn’t likely to do anything at the plate you’d want to see.
Dirty – Well back in the day the bench guys WERE mostly bench bats.
But these days it’s common to see guys with batting averages under .220 coming into games to pinch hit because of the short bench and then stay in the game. It’s not that often you see a guy pinch hit and then get removed for a better defensive player.
As much infield depth as the Red Sox have, they don’t seem to have anyone to backup 3rd if Devers is hurt. There’s a long list of guys who might be able to do it, but last year they tried going to Romy and he looked awful at 3rd.
Toro was primarily a 3rd baseman in the minors, and in the majors he’s been average-to-better defensively by all primary defensive metrics.
Break glass in case of emergency signing.
Absolutely. I’m fine with it, as far as emergency/organizational guys go he’s fine. And like you said we have zero of them at third. It’s good depth planning. I just remain disappointed that this is the only thing even partially resembling a major league bat they’ve added, with odds appearing low that anyone better will be coming. Tyler O’Neill contributed 31 homers, 2.6 bWAR, 61 RBI, 74 runs, and a 132 OPS+ last year. I continue to find it absurd that they are not remotely interested in replacing that production while continuing to make comments about how serious they are about getting us back to the playoffs.
Dirty – I think O’Neill’s production will be replaced by someone graduating from the farm. Whether that’s anthony or Campbell remains to be seen.
I don’t think its Mayer anytime soon since he has been particularly fragile, hasn’t even played in AAA, and seems to have learning pains each time he jumps levels where he slumps and needs to adjust a bit. Not the profile of a guy who skips levels or makes quick jumps.
The other thing is it sounds like the FO is hellbent on ‘rebuilding some value’ with Yoshida at the expense of competitiveness and the mlb club. Putting him in the field hurrs everyone. They need an addition by subtraction to put the best 13 guys on the bench that can contribute to a ‘w’ every game. Yoshida has value, but, isn’t a good fit in BOS. Eat the money, get a defensive 3B, and let devers/Casas split 1B/DH.
I hope you’re right about one of the kids stepping up to replace that production. I’m as excited to start seeing them as anyone, I just am not crazy about thrusting them into position where they’re expected to do too much too soon. Some guys relish that kind of pressure but it destroys a lot of promising young kids. So I’d feel better if we brought in one more established hitter so we can let the kids play their way into the lineup at their own pace, but hopefully at least one of the big three will be ready and able to make the jump early on.
I think at this point there’s no other conclusion than that you’re spot on about Yoshida. I want to treat him as a sunk cost, but the FO clearly doesn’t. If they were willing to, I’m sure they’d have already found a new home for him. Like you say, it’s not that he’s not a useful player, but he is a poor fit for this roster and also moderately overpaid. At least he’s not overpaid to an extreme degree. It’s at least within the realm of possibility that he could put up just strong enough of a season that somebody would be willing to take him come July. Beats the outlook for Story’s contract, we’re gonna be stuck with that until the end whether we want to be or not. (I already don’t want to be).
Mayer will be at AAA and has shown the ability to make adjustments. It’s not unrealistic that he will be playing in the Majors by the end of the season.
Dirty – Not just the kids.
A healthy Casas.
A healthy Devers.
A healthy Story.
A healthy Yoshida.
They will MORE than make up for O’Neill’s offensive contributions last year.
FPG yup a healthy Casas should be worth 30 plus homers but a healthy Story can be a big help against lefties he’s always had hefty splits, including in Boston. A healthy Story, a big if, goes a long way to not only helping with lefties but solidifying the infield defense.
I assume Yoshida’s use in the field will be limited. He is the obvious DH so give him an occasional start in the field to convince a trade partner he is capable. If he is used too much in the field he could get injured or show that he had no value there which defeats the purpose. Is he supposed to be ready for spring training? If so maybe they can showcase him and unload him before the games count.
Uncle – Yoshida was still swinging off a tee a couple weeks ago. He probably won’t be throwing in ST, at least not early on. Kinda ironic he had the exact same surgery as Ohtani, very close in time too.
I think the best case scenario is Yoshida proves himself in the first half and then gets traded at the deadline if he’s no longer needed.
they are not remotely interested in replacing that production
=======================
I like TON, but he didn’t fit in our OF. Opening day will be Duran, Rafaela & Abreu. By the ASB, we might be looking at trading one of those three to bring Anthony in.
Of course, the outfield as constituted is too crowded already. I never expected to keep everyone, but I guess I wanted to see a bigger shakeup than the FO did this winter.
My preference for finding a way to squeeze in that veteran bat to upgrade the lineup would’ve been one of the following:
1. Trade Abreu for pitching and either sign Teoscar Hernandez or re-sign Tyler O’Neill on a shorter term, higher AAV deal with an opt out after year 1 or 2 so Anthony can take over once he’s ready and they can move on – Too late for that
2. Dump Yoshida for whatever you can get, move Devers to DH, and get Bregman or Arenado to play 3rd. Could maybe even kill two birds with one stone and attach Abreu to Yoshida in a trade and be able to get somebody with a pulse in return while still opening up RF for Anthony. This is theoretically still possible though they’ve publicly ruled it out, so looks like the ship has sailed here too barring a major surprise.
3. If they’re going to insist on keeping Devers on third (my least favorite idea, since we’re fantasizing here), could at least still dump Yoshida and go get Pete Alonso to play DH. If we’re going to roll with that big of a defensive negative at the hot corner, we need to compensate by having a bigger stick at DH imo. Slap hitting singles isn’t gonna cut it. I’ve never heard this floated by anyone well-connected as even being a possibility, so I know I’m completely dreaming on this one.
I was afraid of that. I had a feeling he was not that far along. If he was closer to returning maybe they could have found a taker. Hopefully he can at least provide some decent offense when he returns.
WCS – Grissom has experience at 3B, and of course Campbell when he’s promoted.
Dalbec is now with the other Sox.
He would never displace his bat in the lineup, but a cinder block on wheels could displace Devers at 3b defensively..
GaSox – You complimented Devers? Has your account been hacked? ;O)
Toro is the typical all-glove no-hit insurance policy so that if a starting infielder goes down, they won’t be scrambling for a Araúz-type fill in.
He’s like Bag Zombroski (look him up), not good and not bad, just one of those players you may call up to be the last guy on the bench for a couple games. Like a can of chicken, you keep it on the shelf and you don’t even consider using it unless there’s a hurricane or blizzard going on and there’s nothing else in the house to eat and you’re starving.
Fever – I don’t dislike Devers the way I dislike Yoshida or Casas, I just feel he doesn’t belong at 3B.
In fact, I think it was TF/KD that I used to stand up for Devers a year or two ago, sort of, to the extent there were a couple outlier seasons that, with the help of egregious scoring, he was *close* to leave average fielding percentages.
However, of the former big three of Bogey, Devers, and Mookie, I was quite vocal in that the one I’d be most willing to let go was Devers.
Even with the recent salary inflation he is somewhat overpaid just because of the defensive liability and what he costs the pitching staff via being forced into the stretch, elevating pitch counts, leaving men on base to score, etc etc etc which doesn’t show directly in his stats either.
Of course, you’re free to chalk some of my generous attitude towards him to 2 weeks of lung infection and all the new treatments heaping on…. or chemo brain…. or ???
GaSox – I was just teasing of course! Everyone has certain players that frustrate them, your feelings towards Devers are justified.
I think most of us believed after Mookie was gone that both Devers and Xander would remain. I remember the debates surrounding the two though, a lot of people chose Devers because of his younger age. I refused to choose though, that’s like choosing between your kids ya know? I just couldn’t do it.
I totally agree Devers was way overpaid, I think everyone agrees with that. The fact he himself said he was surprised at how much was offered, that definitely indicates overpay. But similar to any employer, the last remaining longtimer usually gets treated the best. That’s just the way it works, when there’s nobody else left then you have all the leverage.
I’m so sorry to hear about the infection, is it gone now or are you still dealing with it? Despite all you’re going through you are still sharp as a tack my friend.
I have a niece who donated hair to a non-profit that uses it for chemo patients, there’s some really admirable organizations out there.
Fever – thanks for asking.
Actually still fighting it. Been a beast, on the upswing though. A lot of people around here have come down with something similar, and they fought it a week or more without the same side issues I have holding me back so in a twisted way that’s encouraging.
Would you appreciate the irony in that in my (much) younger years I grew the hair out twice to donate myself to be used for cancer patients?
I think its getting to a good time of the offseason perhaps we ought to do some informal polling about who in our mlbtr crowd might be interested in a ST meet up.
Even better the more of us who butt heads are in one place with a drink or two to debate in person, put faces with names.
GaSox – I’m not at all surprised you donated twice, because it’s something good guys do.
I’d be interested as I do ST every year, but I think anyone else who does would want to be discreet about it and so would I. Certain people I wouldn’t feel comfortable with because they took things too far, and maybe one or two wouldn’t want me there ;O)
Feel free to take the lead gauging interest, I’ll try to follow along as my notifications are hit or miss. I don’t recall others posting about attending games like I do, so I wouldn’t expect too many to be interested … worth a shot though.
Are you talking JetBlue only? Or possible Red Sox ST road games too?
The way JetBlue’s stock has been crashing (no pun intended), there may be a new ballpark name on the horizon for the Sox.
The beauty of it is, for the most part I feel folks don’t know eachothers real names. You get to be whoever you want, in person. Go by a first name, an alias, who cares.
Share a username, don’t share a username. I’ve had heated exchanges (I think) over time, we all have. Doesnt change the fact that, for the most part, we’re all passionate fans.
Beauty of it is just having a day enjoying nice weather and baseball.
GaSox – Without private messaging on this site, it’s tricky but I do know some ways around it.
I’ve been involved in this sort of thing before, we have to be careful.
For instance what if somebody else shows up and claims to be me?
What if somebody else shows up and claims to be you?
I’m guessing hundreds of people have already read these messages.
Fever, if someone showed up and claimed to be me i’ll watch em take doses of chemo twice a day at the game. If they want to experience that I say let em! LOL….
It’s an odd effort to make, we’ve done it so many times via car clubs and websites devoted to particular cars and I’ve never seen someone who took the time effort and expense to pretend to be anyone else. That’s some serious real estate to own rent free in their minds to make em try.
GASox – Just recently someone here posted where they *thought* I lived, pretty creepy. Over the past few years I’ve had to mute several accounts that created handles with my Fever Pitch Guy in them. I’ve been the subject of a few obsessions, not kidding.
But to your point, do those car club websites have PM’s? That’s how every other forum of mine has arranged these sort of things, via private messaging.
They have it, but, we just made an open thread. For example, the fiero group just put an open thread and sets up a tent at the gm nationals at carlisle every year. They have drinks and snacks on honor system to toss a few bucks in. People bring parts or manuals they don’t need and we hold a live auction on some, silent auction on others, and the money is just donated.
Last year saw around 80 cars plus guys who didn’t bring one and just came themselves.
Whole different situation. No tough guys, no doxxing behaviors. Even the automotive swap meets, whole different culture, it’s like stepping back 60 years in America.
Guys watch the neighboring spot of someone they’d never met before that weekend. Nobody steals. Sharing food, drinks. Totally different
GaSox – Well here’s my suggestion. Give it some time, see if anyone else here is seriously interested. If not, I’ll happily sign up with one of those car forums so we can message privately (please don’t post the forum name here)..
Okay I’m calling it a night, Maybe I’ll wake up to news the Sox finally got their RHB in Mark Canha ;O)
Great, now they don’t need Bregman!
They never really needed Bergman to be fair
@acell the Mets didn’t “need” Juan Soto but look how that turned out
Right now we have no idea how that move turned out. Also a 26 year old Soto is far more valuable then a declining 31 year old Bergman
Value is relative to the amount of improvement you get vs the person you displace.
Take for example, bregman into the devers/Yoshida mix.
Yoshida was a 1.4 war DH in ’24. Devers was a 3.7 war 3B in ’24.
Soto was a 7.9 war OF in ’24. Bregman was a 4.1 war 3B in ’24.
Abreu was 3.4 war, rafaela was 2.8 war, Duran was 8.7 war.
Arguably, if you signed Soto for his exorbitant price tag, you’d bump ceddane out of the mix and net a 5.1 war improvement.
However, if you signed bregman for HALF the aav of Soto, you would see Devers war rise because he wouldn’t be penalized his negative defensive value. Even after positional adjustment, I think it’s fair to judge Devers would’ve been worth about 4.8 war in 24 as a dh with no fielding. Thats a 3.4 war improvement over Yoshida. Then, you get to add the 4.1 war of bregman to that. Thats a 7.5 war improvement in production.
So, across the TEAM lineup, you’d register a 50% better improvement from adding bregman than Soto, at half the investment.
That’s where the bloom years were such a failure in the roster construction, which, still has logjams after year one of breslow.
The most expensive, highest performing player doesn’t always equal the greatest positive impact to your ballclub.
You can dicker over what Devers as a dh would’ve been worth, but, the overall net improvement is going to be higher getting a glove out there at 3b vs soto, not to mention what it does as far as keeping pitchers out of the stretch, baserunning off the paths, lowering pitch counts, etc etc…
The gist being, 1 player for $700 million? I don’t think any team “needs” to do that
The value is that Soto is a player on the rise whose offensive profile is that of a a hall of fame player vs Bregman who’s on the decline offensively and could be headed that way defensively too.
If that’s the case then the sox don’t need to spend $200 million on a 3B especially one like Bregman
Ace – Agreed! Bregman will cost $25 to $30 million per year, so the comparison with a player making MLB minimum is pretty different.
And the Sox didn’t “need” Trevor Story and look how that turned out, what’s your point?
GA- Interesting analysis of the potential value someone like Bregman could have. Never thought of it like that. Great way to interpret the upside of a move. I think initially I was hoping the Red Sox would get Soto no matter how much he cost, because we could say look what the Sox did. It has been so long since they were throwing money around like the Yankees, Mets, and Dodgers, you just long for it even if it would be a complete waste of money.
The only problem with Soto is he very well could be starting his decline half way through his contract and you still owe him over $350 million. He could also catch the injury bug and be lost for a couple of years in his prime. Yes, Bregman may be starting to decline but he is only 4 years older and at 30 he could turn things back around on a different team. If he was 37, I would agree that he is done.
Not that I am saying he is the best option, but he does bring veteran experience and solid defense. I think the number of years he gets will be the deciding factor. If the Sox were really in on him I think he would have been signed by now, so we can likely move on from him. I expect him to end up back in Houston.
Bregman’s OPS over the last 4 seasons:
2021 – .777
2022 – .820
2023 – .804
2024 – .768
He is NOT the big right handed bat I would be paying $25,000,000+ per year starting at age
31 !!
I hope the Red Sox save their money to spend on extensions for home grown players, since they do not want to spend insane money like the Dodgers and Mets.
KD17: I have no problem moving Devers off 3rd. I have a problem paying Bregman or trading for Arenado and paying that contract when both players have excited their primes and have shown clear signs of decline.
KD 17: and Gioloti is only paid for one more season. THat’s still too much money to be handing to Arrenado unless the cards are picking up a larger portion of that tab.
Nice move. Toro covers a lot of grass, some say he runs like a Deere
I’ve heard they say he charges grounders like a bull.
The real problem will be anger management with all those red sox running around him and in the dugout….
The Riding Lawnmower
What’s on second.
As Bugs Bunny would say: “What a gulla bull!” What a nin cow poop!”
Mayer is talking about taking reps in the OF at AAA. I still think he should be getting reps at 1b/3b to begin the yr, Once Story is gone he can be the regular SS. This will allow him to be on the 26 with Story and still get AB’s along with Campbell /Grissom et al.
Mayer does not need to take reps at 1B. he’s is an above average defender at SS and would be wasted at 1B. If anything he’d be fine at 3B or the OF.
KD17: As has been well established at this point Fielding percentage is the most biased non objective way to evaluate a players defense. You have continuously railed against the official scorer at Fenway for giving players like Devers a break for that very reason. A statue could have a 100% percentage but would still be a horrible defender if they had no range. You know this. .
Fixating on one number because you think it supports your argument doesn’t make you right. While Campbell is a capable defender at 2B and maybe the OF Mayer is superior defender it isn’t really debatable.
Ace – Agreed. Mayer is an above average SS. He could be used at 3B if Devers eventually moves to DH. The outfield is already crowded in Boston, so I would be surprised if Mayer spends much time in the outfield. For the beginning of the 2025 season, Mayer will be in AAA Worcester as he was injured in 2024 after he was promoted to AAA, and received no At Bats in AAA.
I don’t know if it makes him a SS for the rest of his career, but all these teams playing these prospects all over the diamond simply makes it look like they are hedging their bets. If the player is good at SS, let him get reps and get even better. Don’t work to turn him into utility, just in case.
KD: you’re relying on a subjective measure to determine fielding acumen. I’ve explained why fielding percentage is a poor measure as have many before hand. Times have changed so relying on measures that were established over 150 years ago when the game has evolved isn’t as effective anymore. It just shows a lack of ability to evolve ones thinking and understand how the modern game is played and analyzed.
KD 17:I’ve played the game I just don’t subscribe to archaistic thinking. Just because you don’t find value in newer statistics doesn’t mean they aren’t valuable.
Also plenty of people who played the game use new metrics to assess data and plenty of players have spoken about using launch angles and exit velocities to measure their success. What you don’t seem to realize is that new metrics augment the old ones and improve on them. Not being stuck in the past and using subjective measurements to make assessments isn’t having ones head up their butt. It shows a higher level of understanding that some people don’t have.
So a high school player didn’t make it to the majors as fast as a college player is basically what this list says.
By your logic Dombrowski must suck at drafting because Andrew Painter hasn’t made it to the majors yet.
Saw Toro when he came up briefly for the Brewers. Believe there was a minor injury at third for a week or so. Seemed ML ready and stepped in and contributed in a short window.
Since Gonzalez and Toro are basically the same player this is nothing but a depth move
Rsox – RomGon can pound LHP, Toro can’t cut it against any pitchers that have at least one arm.
True
They need guys to fill out the Worcester roster
Alright! We replaced O’Neils power production from last year, sadly it took toro’s whole career to do it!
The vaunted RH bat we’ve been waiting for! Oh wait. Breslow and Co. are at it again……will be another thing they do not come through on. It is beyond tough to be lied to these last few years. We will contend! The goal is to win 90 plus games and make the playoffs! Remember when it was win the WS, that’s no longer a goal with this ownership, attempting to say we will make the playoffs is good enough now. So sad. We will go full throttle for the fan base! And then this year, have basically talked the talk on any good FA out there and here we are 2 weeks from Spring Training with yet another offseason of signing has beens, are nobody’s, will be nobody’s, injury prone, coming off an injury or are soon to be injured. Bargain shopping for banged up players isn’t going to build you a contending team. You say you don’t want to give out big contracts? Well this is what you get and when you are not even making the playoffs, guess what Henry and Breslow? YOU ARE PISSING AWAY MONEY. It is really tough to watch this ownership group have zero expectations now. Basically it’s hey fans here’s a team we scrapped together. Come watch us for crazy prices still at Fenway while we claw our way to try and win 80 games. It’s a disgrace. At this point I’m more excited to just be at Fenway than watch them “try” to build a team.
