Good evening, fellow St. Lucians, at home and abroad. Happy New Year to you all. I pray that 2020 will bring you good health, peace, happiness, and prosperity. I thank you all for the spirit of giving and love which flowed throughout our island in December. It was a joy for my family and I to share in the festivities, especially my constituency of Miku South. St. Lucia, 2019 was a year of continuing on our journey to bring empowerment to all people and to build a new St. Lucia. Recall that on assuming office in 2016 and on other occasions thereafter, I indicated that our government would need about three years before we'd really start seeing tangible results. Our task was not easy. In fact, what we found was rather daunting. Unemployment was at an alarming high of 25%. Our country had gone through five years of zero or negative growth. We were facing crippling levels of debt and there was severe deterioration in our physical infrastructure, social services, particularly in health, education, and in community services. Most of our institutions, economic and social sectors, were either in disarray or dysfunctional, from the police to the judiciary, from our culture to education. Many projects that should have been completed by the former government, such as the two hospitals, the desilting of the John Compton Dam, all critical projects had either not started or were far from complete. In short, the fiscal and economic situation was dire and there was a general sense of hopelessness all over this country. This is the backdrop against which my party was elected. Immediately, our team of workers rolled up our sleeves and got down to the business of turning this situation around. There is a little question that the visible improvements in the economy and the new direction has restored our country's hope and confidence. Our policies are working and we are moving in the right direction. One of our first actions was to fulfill our general election promise to ease the burdens on the entire population. We immediately implemented the five to stay alive. We reduced the 15% VAT. We put a freeze on property taxes. We introduced an amnesty on hospital bills. We reduced the vehicle license cost. We doubled the allocations for school feeding and transportation programs. Other measures included doubling the budgetary allocation for our culture, addressing deficiencies in the security and justice system, starting the phased transition to the OKEU hospital. We've spent millions on improving the infrastructure in almost every constituency, creating economic benefits and employment, and things such as roads, community centers, sports facilities, primary health care services. We've improved the water supply systems in the north and the south. Today, three and a half years in our administration, Saint Lucia can see and feel the positive signs that we are moving in the right direction. The most recent IMF assessment on Saint Lucia described our growth prospects in the near term as favorable. I'm projected that the commencement of our eminent for infrastructural projects will substantially boost growth in 2020 to 2022 period. Unemployment, which was at 25% when we came in, has been reduced to 17% according to the most recent reports from the statistics department. And we anticipate a further reduction this year. The undisputed fact is that our economy has recorded growth in every single year since we took office. I make this point to emphasize the fact that history shows that Saint Lucia always prospers under United Workers Party administration. We have a track record laid down by our founding father, Sir John Compton, of consistently developing this country. When I addressed you at the start of 2019, I spoke to the implementation of a number of our government's plans. Several of our signature projects are underway, especially in the southern part of the island. We're excited about the airport redevelopment project. Our first FBO private jet facility is now operational and the rebuilding of St. Jude's Hospital continues at a rapid pace. The Pearl of the Caribbean project had quite an auspicious start on National Day with our island's first international horse racing event, which attracted media, investors and visitors from all over the world. And has created an unprecedented buzz about Saint Lucia, regionally and internationally. The public showed their overwhelming support for the project by coming out in spectacular fashion for this day at the races. Attendance was in excess of 7,500. Many had flown in from New York, Toronto, London and all over the Caribbean region to participate in the rebirth of the South. The next race is scheduled for mid-February just in time for our 41st Independence Anniversary. Does anyone remember the 1970s, when View Fort was humming with industrial and manufacturing activity? It started with an event on May 1, 1970 that was billed as D-Day. D for development when the Honor International Airport was commissioned. Halston Day's hotel was opened, as was Windward Island packaging company, Winnero. United Workers Party's plan back then was to make View Fort the industrial capital of Saint Lucia, creating an industrial estate that attracted a host of manufacturers. Apart from Winnero, Winward and Leeward Brewery came, along with some unforgettable names like Milton Bradley, Karaman, Manumatics, Marston Mills. For nearly two decades, View Fort was booming, providing jobs for people not only from the town, but from Labry, Souffreir, Choiselle and Miku. Many businesses in Castry's open branches in View Fort. Regrettably, under the Labour Party, much of what was achieved during that time has been lost. Today, Salvation is coming to the South. Added to the Pearl of the Caribbean project, we have the airport, the cruise ship terminal, the redevelopment of Anstassab and the Canales project, the Free Zone at Heonoro, that was underperforming when we came into office, is now 100% filled and more importantly, we have a waiting list. We've also invested significant resources in Souffreir, another town where there had been widespread neglect. We opened the Humminbird Beach Park, upgraded and redesigned the Souffreir town square, redeveloped the old Trafford playing field and converted it into a farmer's market and a bus terminal, upgraded the Sulphur Springs Park and began work on two new sporting facilities. Roads are being attended to, new hospitals being built and Souffreir has become the poster child for village tourism. Similar programs are being implemented in Ansleray and in Groslet and eventually rolled out island-wide. To the North, we're making changes in Castry's, which includes the Market Redevelopment Project. The old structure had for years been the target of criticism and ridicule, mainly because it failed to offer proper shelter and conveniences to vendors and to the general public. The newly built market is hurricane resistant and enables the free flow of goods and people. The goal here is to make the Castry's Market one of the best, if not the best attraction for locals and visitors, a permanent home for authentic local arts and crafts, as well as agro-processing products. Our vendors must proudly sell what is ours or, as some people may say, c'est à nous. We have on previous occasions shared with you our plans and vision for uplifting the entire city where more green spaces and less congestion, some of which will unfold during this year. Our tourism sector has been growing steady during the past year and we are truly defining brand solution. Many hotels reported record occupancies, especially during otherwise slow periods. A contributing factor being our summer festivals, which also benefited car rental companies, taxi drivers, tour operators, and other local service providers throughout the summer. I'm so proud that the tourism minister, Dominic Fady, was voted Caribbean Tourism Minister of the Year and Saint Lucia recaptured the award for World's Leading Honeymoon Destination at the prestigious World Travel Awards. We've also regained our position as the leading tourism destination in the OECS. Our cruise tourism arrivals have hit record numbers and stemming from the MOU we signed with Royal Caribbean and Carnival cruise lines, we expect a visiting team to look at the proposed projects to improve the quality of port castries and new cruise home port in Viewfort. Meanwhile, we're substantially increasing our hotel room stock. Following the negotiations and the securing of several approvals, the physical hotel projects are set to start. Among them, the Hyatt Project in Shock, a Dreams and Secrets Hotel in Canals, and the highly anticipated Cabot Saint Lucia, a game-changing project for the Caribbean golf industry. Our discussions with international carers have borne fruit and we've experienced an increase in airlift into the island, resulting in over 400,000 stayover arrivals for the first time. We were thrilled in December to welcome our new American Airlines flight from Chicago and indications are that we are headed for another excellent year for this industry. As we continue to grow as a country, we're addressing our road infrastructure with an island-wide road rehabilitation program, the upgrading of feeder roads, the rehabilitation of the West Coast Highway and building on East Coast Highway to more easily connect the North to the South and thereby address the traffic congestion in the Grozallet Highway. The financing of these projects is being provided by the Taiwanese and the CDB and other development agencies with the loans supported by the fuel and airport tax. Some of you have already seen the results with which the work in Casemba Road in Grozallet, the Forest Air Road, the Tiemont Road in Union, the Salterbus Road in Choiselle, the Bel Air Road in Castry Southeast. Work is eminent for the road in Denry Village, Blascia, Spring Roads in Miku South and the New Development Roads in Souffaire, just to name a few. The Ministry of Infrastructure Rehabilitation Program will cost EC 110 million, the Millennium Highway and West Coast Road 130 million, the Kuldusak Bridge 30 million, the Shock Bridge 22 million and the feeder roads 50 million, nearly $350 million in total, making this the largest such investment in St. Lucia's history. It is no secret that there was a mass exodus of farmers from the agriculture sector during the reign of the Labour Party. Our farmers are too important to let this trend continue and thankfully with the support and incentives we are seeing a turnaround. In 2016, banana production increased despite the challenges from natural disasters. We're actively working on new markets and discussions remain underway with Winfresh to strengthen the company's operations and expand its export base. Under our food import substitution program, the Ministry of Agriculture is working closely with farmers to decrease on the food import bill by increasing our output of seven crops, cabbage, lettuce, watermelon, cantaloupe, bell pepper, pineapple and tomato. The intention is to be fully self-sufficient in those crops. We're also putting greater emphasis on the regional markets and exploring expansion with export St. Lucia to improve our agro-processing sector and two agro-processing plants are now in operation at Ager in Miquoux and Fossault in Babineau. Young people, now is the time to explore the opportunities in this sector, especially when it comes to the production of cocoa, honey and livestock. Addressing the needs of our education system has been multifaceted. We simultaneously have been tackling aging infrastructure, outdated curriculums and the lack of innovation. To date, we've already spent 25 million to address deteriorating school infrastructure, which is in sharp contrast to the five million spent by the Labor Party in five years. We've finally put doors on some classrooms where they never existed. Repair the leaking roofs, fixed hazardous electrical and plumbing problems which had been festering for decades. The list goes on, but we will get it done as we've allocated another 10 million for school repairs in 2020, 2021. This month, we begin construction work on three primary schools under the Education Quality Improvement Program, ACWIP. These schools are like Gaer combined, Gordon Walcott Memorial Methodist and the Vibhuté Primary. In modernizing and innovating our schools, we've already started teaching, computer encoding and robotics. Our next exciting venture is the introduction of eBooks as a pilot project for Form 3s. Unlike with the previous administration, the new program will be supported by downloadable lessons, infographics and internet links. This will significantly reduce the cost of books for parents. We wish to say a special thanks to the Republic of China, Taiwan for their commitment towards ICT and the education over the next three-year period. We're grateful to our diplomatic partners who continue and in some cases have increased scholarships for solutions to study abroad. These opportunities are even more accessible if we as solutions become multilingual. We're excited about the appointments of a new principal at the Sir Arthur Lewis Community College, Dr. Keith Nurse, who is recognized as one of the experts on creative and orange economy. And we're looking forward to diversifying the programs offered at Sir Arthur Lewis College, which will include converting Radio St. Lucia into a recording studio to enhance St. Lucia's expertise in the field of broadcasting and music production. One of our biggest success stories has been in the manufacturing sector. The last three and a half years, we've targeted this sector for employment and investment generation. Caribbean quality meets limited. A poultry processing plant is soon to begin operations in Denver. Invest St. Lucia has also partnered with Jamaica Company, ITEL BPO Smart Solutions, in developing a 20,000 square foot factory shell set to be operational by April at the UNORA Free Zone, which will create even more employment in the South. A US $30 million expansion is currently underway at St. Lucia Distillers Limited. Similar expansion works are planned at the Wynward and Leeward Brewery. Attention is also being paid to the restoration of the coconut factory in Supra. Invest St. Lucia has also been facilitating home ownership for all solutions. Two residential developments, one in Abouajouli in Denver and the other in Boshan, Miku, are currently underway at prices that are accessible to working middle income solutions, especially the youth. Our government also has major housing projects airmarked for Leclery, Rock Hall, Talvern, Bel Air, Angers, La Rousseau, Rivadoury and Canaries. We continue to be inspired by the success of Ojo Labs, the only artificial intelligence real estate company globally, which began operations in Vuefort 2017 and now provides meaningful employment for hundreds of young people. These and more projects are designed to encourage entrepreneurship, ownership, create jobs and more importantly, generate revenue. We've not come to you with empty slogans, like jobs, jobs, jobs and better days, rather we believe that once the hard work is done and the foundations laid, the jobs and the other benefits will follow. The evidence speaks for itself and we still have 18 months to work. St. Lucia, we know that the healthcare is an issue that impacts every single home and family. I reiterate our commitment to ensuring affordable quality healthcare for all. You can expect the full commissioning of the Owen King Hospital as the majority of the faulty equipment has been fixed or is being replaced and we've set a deadline for us to move in by the first half of this year. As I mentioned, work is also proceeding at the St. Jude's Hospital site. Many of you now know are fully aware of the major structural and safety issues which exist in the hodgepodge of structures built by the former administration. Our government is committed to getting it right. We're currently constructing a 90 bed facility that will cater for both inpatient and outpatient services. We will soon be able to put behind us the sad memories that have lingered since 2009 when the original structure was destroyed by fire. I want to thank the management and staff of St. Jude for their hard work and more importantly, patients and staying in the course with their excellent service during those very trying years. Though the Denver polyclinic had to be redesigned because of inadequacies in the original plan, we anticipate work will start soon on the redesigned facility. We've increased the operating hours of the Grozellet polyclinic to improve the services offered to residents in the North. Also on the way is the construction of healthcare centers in Anceleray and Miku, the contract for which was signed on Tuesday this week. Of course, the biggest deficiency in our healthcare system is that tens and thousands of solutions are unable to afford healthcare. The Labor Party talked about universal healthcare but had no plan on how to pay for it. Now in partnership with the World Bank we're strengthening St. Lucia's public healthcare system by improving accessibility, efficiency and responsiveness of key health services. In this year's budget, I shall expand on our plans for a national health insurance program. We aim to ensure that all solutions have insurance and government will cover the vulnerable, elderly and unemployed. In addition, 33 primary healthcare centers will be equipped to serve as the first point of detection for infectious diseases as well as emergencies. In partnership with the Pan American Health Organization a smart healthcare project is underway to make 17 health centers safer, greener and more resilient to natural disasters. We cannot and will not deny that the crime situation continues to affect us deeply. We feel it every time a young person loses their life through violence. It not only impacts their families but we also lose what they may have contributed to the development of our society. We cannot look at the crime situation without doing serious reflection about the way we lead our daily lives, raise our children, our interactions, the way we resolve conflict and how impulsive we may be to react or get retribution. We must continuously work on this as a society. Even as the government implements measures to help prevent, detect and solve crime. Internally, we've started a process of measuring the results on a weekly basis. While we have not achieved the kind of success we would all want, we know that the effort we are making will begin to pay off, remain committed to the multi-pronged strategy to significantly reduce crime. We've already embarked on the following. Empowering and modernizing our police force with communication equipment. Vehicles, including motorcycles. We now have 95 CCT cameras, feeds in strategic areas and in 2020, we will mount 525 additional camera feeds from castries to Grozellet. We've recruited over 80 new officers with targeted patrols already resulting in a drop in assaults. We reopened the forensic lab. We started with 12 city police and are now up to 42. We restored the operations of our Coast Guard vessels and radar systems which had been dysfunctional. The director of public prosecution has received increased resources for his office. We facilitated the strengthening of the judiciary with more magistrates and judges. And despite attempts to derail plans to build a new police headquarters, we will move forward with the new structure at the old prison site in the first quarter of 2020. Simultaneously, we're working towards tackling crime at its root with social programs such as the Youth Empowerment Project which focuses on mitigating risk factors that trigger criminal and antisocial behaviors. There will be a special emphasis on young men, vulnerable groups, especially children, at-risk youth and women in target communities. We also have after-school programs intended to keep our kids meaningfully engaged. In 2019, we increased the number of social workers and revised our incarceration and rehabilitation policies as part of the crime fighting strategy. The next few weeks, we will be making an announcement about impending changes to intend to accelerate the measures to bring crime under control and to strengthen the police force. As we begin 2020, we must also address the issue of climate change and safeguarding the environment. I appeal to all solutions to be forever cognizant of these issues and to do our part to lessen our carbon footprint and to take pride in our surroundings. I refer here to the indiscriminate disposal of garbage that we see in many of the places and clogging of gutters and sidewalks with debris, especially plastics and styrofoam products. The government has made a steady effort to phase out the use of styrofoam and to continuously clear drains. But all this means nothing if we as citizens don't take personal responsibility and stop littering our beautiful island. In my budget, I will also be unveiling plans for new technologies to deal with the disposal of garbage, solid waste. I will continue on the international stage to champion climate change and its impacts on small island developing states like St. Lucia. Over the past 18 months as a government, we've spent millions building and upgrading sports facilities in our country because we believe in our youth and we believe that sports can open many doors and build character, teaches discipline and focus. The achievements of our athletes, not just in 2019, is further evidence that we can compete and thrive on an international level. We can build on the accomplishments of people like Darren Sammy in cricket and Laverne Spencer in athletics. When 2019 won another gold at the Pan-American Games, at the same Games in Liba, Javelin thrower Albert Reynolds brought home the bronze. We continue to follow closely the success of sprinter Julian Afford, who is already setting records this early in the season. We have two amazing St. Lucians, Chris Boucher and Terence Mann, now playing in the NBA. Kimani Melius was named captain of the West Indies team for the Under-19 World Cup in South Africa. Our Under-15 boys team were crowned champs at CompaCaf. Victory was also ours at the 2019 Windward Island School Games. These successes must inspire us to rally around our team for 2020 Summer Olympics in Tokyo this year. It shows us that we must create the facilities for our youth to give them a chance to achieve even more greatness. We're currently working on upgrading our sports facilities with the lighting of Le Fag playing field in Choiselle, Sothebos, and improving Souffermini Stadium, the Ruby Cricket Ground, the Balotin Field, and the Derisso Football Field. It is why we have broken ground for the commencement of the upgrading of the Miku playing field, also to be upgraded our Denry Village football and cricket fields, just to name a few. The new National Sports Academy in Grozallet, where over 50 students are currently enrolled, will also receive new facilities. Not just in sports and arts, we're also showing so much promise. The incredible theatrical production, A Little Folk Tale, written by amazingly 20-year-old Monique Augiste and 19-year-old Jesse Meyers. They formed part of our reverting cultural showcase at the Cara Festa in 2019. Our musicians and singers taking the authentic Lucian Sound Global on a record year for Carnival with young band leaders spearheading that growth. To the young comedians, Derv Too Funny, Kedel Sonny, Noah Sees, using our culture and social media to make people laugh, to the innovators, to the young influencers. We see you. There is no stopping your shine. Let's face it, we have some amazing young people in this country. Next week we'll announce young up-and-coming talent from St. Lucia, who'll be named brand ambassadors. We'll also be naming cultural ambassadors who will leverage their credibility, their celebrity status, in the interest of our country. In 2019, I've had the privilege to meet with many of them, to exchange ideas and truly hear their voices. I look forward to more engagement in 2020 with solutions from all walks of life. I must take a moment to assure solutions that despite the empty accusations and the spreading of false news that seems to pervade our society of late, our government remains committed to good governance and transparency. In April of 2017, we illustrated this by passing landmark amendment to the Crown Proceedings Act, which was a recommendation of the 2009 Romshohoi Commission of Inquiry. The amendment allows for the recovery of public funds, not to be statue bound. It is worth noting that during the particular sitting of parliament, the opposition chose not to remain in the house and to discuss this critical matter. We also assured that the announced investigations into matters related to public projects and secret agreements are ongoing and I will provide the necessary updates in due course. Our government believes that all public officials should give full accounts of their stewardship and be willing to engage the public. Hence, we've been very active spreading factual government information via the bi-weekly publication Our St. Lucia, our regular pre-cabinet engagements with the press, regular parances on talk shows and via the national television network which has recently launched a series of new engaging programming featuring interviews with government ministers and officials. You can also find out what is happening on my own schedule via the Prime Minister's weekly diary which is posted on my Facebook and Instagram pages. During the past year, we celebrated our 40th independence anniversary with a range of successful activities. There truly is a sense of national pride beginning to re-emerge in our country. It is the hope of our government that we will continue to build on this and come together, united in a common purpose and empowering ourselves in developing our country by taking advantage of the opportunities being created. I wish to thank the members of my cabinet for the continued hard work, knowing that there is still so much we have to do to keep St. Lucia on this upward path. I also wanna thank my wife, Raquel, my family, my support staff at the office of the Prime Minister and, very importantly, my constituents in Miku South, all of them for their continued support and participation in helping in their own way to push this country forward. My fellow solutions, I know you feel that our country is on the move. You feel that St. Lucia is beginning to rise once more. As a leader and a nation unafraid to take bold choices, I know you feel the growing buzz in our country and that the region and the world is keeping an eye on us. We must not get distracted. We must remain inspired by St. Lucia we love. We know and we can feel. Now is the time. Let's do this together. May God bless you all and may God bless our beloved St. Lucia.


So JK Dobbins, going back to where it all started with Greg Roman, they are reuniting because he expected to sign a one-year deal with those LA Ravens, LA charges, same stuff anyway. But shout out to JK Dobbins. We happy for JK Dobbins that he is getting another opportunity. We figured he was going to get another new opportunity but it was just a matter of where and when because when is even more important than the where because you think about the timing with this whole thing, the timing of this whole entire JK Dobbins process and the timing has been very, very critical and I'm explaining to you exactly why. Make sure you subscribe to the channel, turn notifications on and leave like on the video because it helps out the channel a ton and I don't want y'all missing anything. Now with JK Dobbins we talked about timing. Remember about a month and change ago when JK Dobbins dropped that video of him running, he was running on a treadmill and he was running in that training room. Remember that? I know y'all do. That was all timing based because shortly after that, maybe like a couple of weeks after that, it was no coincidence that his agent, his people, they dropped that report where it said, oh, JK Dobbins has officially been cleared for football activities. He can resume football activities and he'll start meeting with teams and I was like, oh yeah, we know what this is all about. This is the business. It's the business. But it was super important that JK Dobbins in his camp, they dropped that report when they did because as we know, JK Dobbins has often been injured. It's been unfortunate. We know JK Dobbins can be a all-be-winner in this league. He can hang with the best of them but unfortunately the injuries have changed and altered his career and just put it on a bad trajectory. So hopefully with the charges he can remain healthy but it's very important that they drop that report when they did because the draft was coming up. Now free agency, it had already came and gone and the big running backs had already got their deals but there was still some other running backs out there. There's always some running backs out there but with the draft coming up, it was so important for JK Dobbins to get with a team before the draft in my opinion because teams can obviously draft some different running backs but that's not where it stops because there are still a bunch of undrafted rookie free agent running backs that teams sign. Like look at the team that JK Dobbins just came from, for example, the Baltimore Ravens. One of their most consistent running backs was an undrafted rookie free agent from 2018 that being Gus Edwards and they're known for signing plenty of undrafted rookie free agents. Keaton Mitchell, one of their most explosive running back this last season, he was an undrafted rookie free agent. So teams are going to find these undrafted rookie free agents, they're going to find the the rookies that get drafted and at the running back position they can get them for so cheap. So had JK Dobbins not been given an opportunity until after the draft it would have been much much harder for him to latch on with a team because teams get this young talent, they get this young healthy talent and they can be like oh no we don't need no JK Dobbins but he is in the right situation and he's in a situation that makes the most sense because as we discussed earlier these LA Ravens they up to it again. Of course they got general manager Joe Hortese who used to work for the Ravens, they got Jim Harbaugh brother of John Harbaugh who's head coach of the Ravens, they got good old Greg Roman who was a former offensive coordinator of the Ravens. JK Dobbins we remember when he complained about carries especially in the playoff game but it's just weird how he's going back to that but I guess the issue must not have been that big but at the same time desperate times in my opinion they call for desperate measures because with JK Dobbins who is going to give him an opportunity. Now we had heard that he visited with the LA Ravens before with the Chargers and we had also heard shortly after that that he had a visit with the Chiefs but then right after that visit with the Chiefs guess what they did they brought back Clyde Edwards-Eleh. They brought him back and that kind of gave us an indication like oh maybe they're not really looking at JK Dobbins like that anymore. On to the Chargers, well really back to the Chargers but he should be around some familiar faces because him and Gus Ed was going to be sharing the backfield yet again and then they're going to be getting blocked, blocked for by Ben Mason another former Baltimore Raven. Titans also share in the blocking assignments, another former Baltimore Raven, Hayden Hearst. So there's going to be a lot of familiar faces, another person in the blocking assignment who's going to be literally on every single block in play and he's going to touch the ball every single snap, Senna Bradley Bozeman, another former Baltimore Raven. So yeah a lot of familiar faces though it's nice when you go to a new place to work, a new place of employment, new company, brand new company but you see some of your old friends oh yeah we used to work together back then oh yeah we had a good relationship back then oh yeah we was cool back then over there. That's exactly how it is for JK Dobbins but it's going to be fun. It's going to be real fun to see how this goes for him. I hope it does go well off both him and Gus Ed. All of them old Ravens. I hope it goes really well for him and all up until they play the Baltimore Raven. That's when you know you don't need to do so good you can chill that game but all the other games go off and go do your thing.


Live from Las Vegas, Nevada, it's theCUBE at HP Discover 2014. Brought to you by HP. Welcome back to Las Vegas, everybody. This is Dave Vellante. Jeff Frick is back with me. This is theCUBE, SiliconANGLE's live production of HP Discover. theCUBE is a live mobile studio. We go out to events. We extract the signal from the noise at these conferences. We report to you, really appreciate your feedback. Go to crowdchat.net slash HP Discover. We're running a live crowd chat, which was announced today. Actually, you saw an article on Recode about crowd chat, so we're really excited about that. But if you've got questions, you can tweet them there or tweet me at at Dave Vellante and you are at Jeff Frick, right? Yep, yep. Okay, Paul Miller is here. He's the vice president of marketing for HP Converged Systems. We had Tom Joyce on yesterday talking about the trends in Converged. We talked about sharks. Paul's going to talk a lot about what went on last month, I guess. Last month? Last week. Last week. Last week in Sapphire. Sapphire's usually in May, right? It's in June this year. Well Paul, welcome back to theCUBE. Good to see you again. Good to see you again. So, give us the update. How was Sapphire? This is the first year I didn't make it in, gosh, it goes and how many?  A lot of business being done at Sapphire. Yeah, no, Sapphire was great. Last week in Orlando, big buzz is still around HANA and what's going on, moving SAP landscapes onto the next generation in-memory technology based on HANA. And we had a really big announcement there on stage with Hasso and Bert Lucur, who took over for Vishal Sikha. Big announcement of our Converged Systems 900 platform, which is really the biggest, baddest in-memory database in the marketplace. The biggest, baddest. The biggest and baddest. Well, in memory just sounds big and bad. Yeah. Yeah. So, I want to ask you, what do you make of Vishal Sikha? Sort of surprise news, him moving on, but what do you make of that? Yeah, every organization goes through evolutions, right? Bert is from the business application side. So he's going to bring, I think, that expertise of sweet on HANA that was his product. That is the holy grail, right? Because if you look at big data, right, there are really two different use cases. One is for systems of record, right? Transactions, credit card transactions, those things that are very, very important. That's where in-memory plays. The others are systems engagement, right? The systems of engagement are where Hadoop and Vertica play, where you go and get the customer engagement, the customer insight. In the past, those two have been two separate systems, right? You collect your data and do your transactions in one database and then you ETL it. You move it to another sandbox to do the analysis of it and to get the insight. With this announcement of the CS900 versus 900 and HANA, now you bring those together. Or first time you have a database scaling up to 12 physical terabytes of data where you can do the in-memory transactions and analyze it at the same time. This is revolutionary, right? So when people talk about big data and in-memory, they usually focus on the speed. But there are two important other elements that are really bigger than just the speed. It's the ability to have this transformational, business transformation of doing real-time analytics on the data and not moving it out. And what that does then is bring massive simplicity. Customers I talk to, they spend more time moving data from the transactional database into another database for BW or analytics. That takes time, resources, adds complexity, multiple different tools, software. Now when you can collapse that all into one, you have a great solution that is highly scalable, simplicity, taking out more simplicity than you can out of anything else. And that's the real magic of what we announced with the Convert Systems 900. Yeah, we talked a lot about the potential to bring together transactional data and analytic data operating on it in real-time or near real-time. Essentially we define real-time as before you lose the customer. So what kind of workloads are you seeing? Obviously, ad serving is one. What other type of workloads are you seeing? So we're seeing customers move their ERP information into there, their customer information. Yeah, for really trying to make those decisions in real-time, to be able to understand what's happening with your supply chain. You can drill down into a country. What's happening with that product? And understand, why is it not selling? Is it a big problem? Or is it a smaller problem? With the new technology, you know, we look at things in aggregates, right? You start on an aggregate, you look at a product line, a country, right? And then typically in a system where you move that data off into another database, you may only get three clicks down and say, okay, I understand the product line has problems, I understand it's in Latin America. But then you have to go extract data again to go double-click on that. And it may only be in a specific country. So you aggregate the data so many times, you start to lose control of your ability to query. When you move it all together and be able to query on it in real-time in the exact database, you move the aggregates and you can query all the way down to maybe a specific country, even a specific store. And that's what's the power of this, what we're talking about, big data. So this notion of in-memory and in-memory databases been around since we've had memory. Why now is it so hot, is it taking off again? One is it's the cost of memory has come down significantly. Two, architectures like the CS900 enable you to scale to 12 terabytes. Most customers can get C compression from three to up to 10%. So we talk about real-life data of OLTP data in the 50 to 80 terabytes. That means now that almost any workload in the world, any database in the world, we can handle and drive. So in the past when you can only have scalability to two or four terabytes, not that interesting for most people's real-time data, most retailers, big financial shops, but now with 12 terabytes, you can really get the performance and the scale that you need. Okay. It's because they talk about the business impact of not having to aggregate so much. This is a very, very different shift when we see the funny commercials on TV about the market of one, but in the real world and in the customers you're talking about, how is that really impacting the way that they make decisions and the way that they're looking at their business? Right, so by getting away from looking at just the aggregates, right, and you can think about it, right, we're all customers, right, and you can do a customer profile looking at multiple different attributes. But in the end, what you have to sell to is the task that a person is doing. And by distributing the aggregates and getting rid of those aggregates and focusing on that, Jeff, you have a task in the morning. You want to know what's happening in the world. We don't care from all the aggregates how many kids you have, whether you're married, we care about that you need to learn the news. And that's what you can do now by distributing the aggregates and getting down to the facts. Hopefully that makes sense, but it's kind of complicated theories, but that's what in memory allows you to do. Yeah, well the one that always intrigues me is the insurance business. And I'm really curious to see how the insurance business evolves in the age of big data, because clearly insurance is based on an aggregation of risk. We all pool our money in, we all pool our risk, and for the poor and fortunate soul that something bad happens to, there's a pool of money. Well, you've seen a slowly and a little, tiny slices of drilling down sex, weight, age, a few things, but now in this age, when you can get so much more data for the individual, how does that impact a business model based on aggregation? I'm still confused. Well, I think it's going to impact the insurance, whether it be health insurance, and your driving ability to collect data points, not on that Jeff, you're a middle-aged man just like me, and your insurance is based on that, but actually how you drive, you will collect those data points. So that's really critical. So insurance from those capabilities to banking in loans, it's going to revolutionize and give customers more information to make better decisions, higher profitability, lower risk for their businesses. So I'm going to have to ask you, where does flash fit into this whole thing? So it's great, it sounds good, do everything in memory, but at some point I got to persist this stuff. Right? Preserve what I want to save it. And so how do I persist the data? So if you look at our architecture with the CS900, we use a mix of hard drives, in memory, flash and hard drives to optimize. So you put your logs off really fast to flash so that you can always rebuild your system. So you'll see this balance over time, and then that'll go away when technology's like memories to come to marketplace. When you truly have true scalable persistent memory, then things like going out to flash. All right, when's that? When's that? Give us a take. You'll have to talk to Martin and thank him about theCUBE here. It's coming in the future. He'll be talking about it in the keynote later today, but that's the holy grail, and that's when I think the whole explosion and people's mindset on what's happening within memory and highly scalable architectures is going to really explode and have so many new use cases, like you say with insurance, et cetera. That's the next big milestone in this. So customers today can really achieve the speed, some of this business transformation, but not the full simplicity until we get to Memrister and that persistent memory. Let's talk about the competitive dynamic because every company out there, I guess with the exception of IBM and Oracle, are hopping on SAP HANA. They see it as a way to build a partnership with SAP, a very important application, ISV. Why HP? Why will customers gravitate toward HP versus some of the other guys that are pushing, whether it's converged infrastructure or other products? Right, so if you look at the average customer, HP, we don't have one SAP instance. We have multiple SAP instances. 30 plus SAP instances, I can't tell you the number, but it's a big number. Every customer I go to, major manufacturers, you find hundreds of SAP instances. And so it's not a one-size-fits-all. They want an architecture that can scale and consolidate and simplify down to one architecture. So if you look at the SAP landscape of most customers today, they're running DB2, they're running Oracle, they're running MaxDB. These have been SAP systems have grown up over 25 years, right? Some DBs I've never even heard of, right? What they're looking to do is not only just move to SAP HANA, but do this consolidation. And sometimes they're going to consolidate it all into one box, but mostly not. They'll still have smaller pools of boxes around, so maybe they go from 30 down to 10. They want that in a consistent architecture that can scale from small to super large that we have with the CS900 that has all the high-ability mission-critical ability characteristics, even beyond what UNIX has provided. And that's our biggest value prop, plus the expertise. Years and years of expertise in our technology services organization, as well as our enterprise services, to be able to migrate those platforms in a fast, efficient way, move the data, and get you onto a consistent platform. So now that we do have the portfolio, we have the skills and expertise that no one else can bring. Like you say, IBM is there, but they're more motivated to do things around DB2 and other architectures. Oracle's not jumping on, and these start looking at the rest of the pile. There's not too many people that have that application, database, data management, credibility. Again, technologies like 3Bar, the ability to take that database, snapshot it away, back it up, restore it. All those capabilities are built into our Converged System portfolio, be it the 500 or the 900. You don't find a competitor out there that can build out the technologies, the portfolio, as well as the expertise that HP can bring to every customer. All right, Paul, we have to leave it there. Last question is the truck's backing up to the Las Vegas, you know, the Sands. Everything's packed. The bumper sticker on the back as it's leaving Discover 2014. What's that bumper sticker say? It says, Converge, it's the next generation. It's going to help you save valuable dollars. Converge, accept it, it's there. Big data to fast data. All right, keep it right there, everybody. We'll be right back. Thank you, Paul, for coming to theCUBE. It was a pleasure having you. We'll be right back. This is theCUBE, Jeff Frick and I. We're reporting live from Las Vegas. This is HP Discover. We're right back.


NPD says that the security is governed by each vertical as well as say if you're doing NPD from the personal data that whatever laws are there in the PDP automatically applies to NPD.  One is the cascading effect in terms of say one person is opted out and how you are going to audit the entire opt-out across the downstream federated data as well. There are some contractual classes but the thing is if something happens there how you can prevent it. First and foremost is from a customer if you're thinking about it all these bills are trying to increase the customer trust. Now if something happens in three or four of your federated systems the trust is automatically broken. So even though you have a contractual clause protecting your business saying that wherever leakage happens he is liable but the leakage and the source if they look back at the source the trust on the entire ecosystem takes a hit on this. So if the consent is not working well. So this is something which is a technical challenge. I wouldn't say it's a legal challenge but it is a technical challenge for people in terms of how it is and now there is the ownership. So in terms of how the security ownership is transferred from each of this thing who is the data owner. Now that becomes an additional cataloging problem in terms of who is the owner at each point of time and who has given access permissions and who has the audit rights on whether the secure mechanisms are working or not. And in terms of actual exchange if I think about data as a service or data business what happens is you will have that specific business team sitting one on one with the consumption team and they'll be jotting it down saying I need three layers of security or two layers of security I need a IP sec I need a VPN on top of it and you need to encrypt my data with a public key or my secret key. So all these nuances are captured. So in this case who's going to capture the nuances and how it is going to happen and how many such contracts we are going to handle. So those are all various security aspects which we need to think into. And other thing is even the key management take a simple scenario are we going to create one keeper consumer and if any key which you're creating will be adhered by a key rotation policy update and rotation policy. So how this all pans out into the entire federated ecosystem. This is another I would say this is another consideration that when you are implementing all these drafts or when you are thinking about how this will pan out into your ecosystem this has a major impact on how you're going to have that. So it is going to have a major impact on the data security areas.


So you wanna eat a little bit more healthy in 2023? I gotcha. It's time for a little bit of that Daniel's Crunchy. Mmm, seriously y'all.


Welcome to filmirun.com. My name's Stephen Cousins. Welcome to North London for Race the Neighbours. It's a beautiful day in July. This is a weird race because it's about two different districts of London, N2 and N10, East Finchley and Muswell Hill. You can run just running. Look on my bib, just running.  It should be a great laugh. It's 10K so we're going to have fun today. This year every runner will count. We're going to average the time of everyone in N2 against everyone in N10. I'm listening to the arches and it's a joy and fun. It's really nice. Canary Wharf over there in the distance, the whole of London basically and we are just running past the birthplace of television, Alexander Palace. It's three kilometres in. That's taken us 18 minutes. So what's your name? Janet. Hi Janet. Hello. Why are you doing this? Community spirit. BM2, that sort of thing. It's been climbing a big hill, about 5K in now, so half way nearly, 29 minutes. What's your name? Melbourne. Hi Melbourne. Hi. What's the longest race you've ever run? Half-murder. Why did you run? To feel better. And why are you here today? So I live just down there. Who you running for? N10. N10. 8.7K in to race the neighbours. Not far now. Beautiful sunny day. What's your name? John. Hi John. Why are you here today? I did this last year. Yeah. Living in the neighbourhood. Who you running for? N2. So why did you run? I just enjoyed it. Good on you John. Take care. Thank you very much. Thanks. Coming up to the finish. The race of the neighbours, 10K here in north London. It's been an absolutely beautiful morning. Fantastic. Really enjoyed it. Glad I came. This is not a flat 10K though. There's a big hill up to Alexander Palace. Then you come down. There you go. Back up again another long steep hill. So it's not a course for a massive PB. But it's very pretty. There's some fantastic vistas across London. There's also some lovely runs through the woods. Very well worth doing. It doesn't matter if you're from Muswell Hill. Or for me, eventually, you can just come and run. It's fine.  Then do get in touch with me. Filmmyrun.com is the website. Facebook.com forward slash filmmyrun. You can get me on Twitter at filmmyrun.

So if they could get a nice Good young core players in there. They can trade some of those prospects as well Lure a couple free agents to Detroit. They may be an interesting team to watch the next Two to two to three years Two to five seasons if not soon three to five seasons if not sooner they're ahead of schedule Let's see if there's any Any news on baseball and only trade rumors calm Cameron Maven announces retirement Kyle's that's right Kyle Seager announces retirement.

We've talked about the buck show alters manager the MLB and the players union not expected to score this to us core economics until January I guess January now, so What else Lou J's apparently we're pursuing Corey Seager before he ended up with the Rangers But Fowler get Gil Hodges finally Jim Cat Mini Minoso Tony leave a buck O'Neill elected to the baseball Hall of Fame Next box. Good luck everybody. There's a manual Rodriguez 499 for the twins Ryan. We've got a Henry Davis Nice yellow lava refractor 38 out of 75. That's a sharp-looking card for Mark Bissette and the Pirates and A blue wave autograph to 150 150 out of 150 Frank Mosey Cato That's a Matthew with the Kansas City Royals First of five autographs in this box First-round pick seventh overall nice and we've got a Yankees autographed.

I'll try to understand that Rex You speak in riddles right next Super Jumbo box. So what what's going on with the? Dodgers here, there's as expected according to MLB trade rumors calm as expected the Dodgers and potters are the two teams that exceeded the luxury Tax threshold this past season the Associated Press reports that Los Angeles paid thirty two six thirty two million dollars in fines Padres only only a million one point Two nine million no other teams have except exceeded the threshold in 2021 Must not have gone. Yeah, all I saw was just cuz he's a pirate Was the only thing I got and then lol the penalties go up every year But this might be you can also kind of like reset the number if you're under it for one year and then it starts over I Don't think the Todders were ever going after Carlos Korea Rex But I MLB trade rumors did mention the Cubs talking kicking the tires on Carlos Korea There's probably there's probably more more to It's probably more to Freddie Freeman possibly going to the Dodgers and there is to Carlos Korea and even Freddie Freeman's I think is a long shot because I think the Braves are gonna.  They can definitely afford the tax and Still add to that payroll too if they wanted to But in recent in past years they have they have done the the multiple steps of the luxury attack punishment the luxury tax and Then I've taken a year to reset and then start over again There's right Kelvin to Castro to 250 purple refractor For the blue J's that'll be for a pain And there's a Colton Couser autograph there you go EA with the O's Nice hit for the Orioles The last auto of the previous box was hunter hunter Davis Henry Davis and the first auto out of here is your fifth overall pick Colton Couser Nice one. There's mackay brown purple paper to 250 Rex saying you're torn about getting crazy. You know the career would make a great addition, but can't get over the cheating thing Yeah, I mean that's something that fans are gonna have to reconcile and there's Doug Nikkei 157 out of 250 for Michael and the Cleveland Guardians nice I Guess still Indians in this set, but and the Guardians now There's Edwin Arroyo paper to 499 for the Mariners. That's gonna go to Travis I just think that's what's messed up Korea is a great player. Not sure Why felt the need to do it? I mean, it's the same thing with steroid guys, right? Like you see great players who get popped for PEDs and you're like well, you're already a great player. Why did you need to do do that? But You know in that world in that world of professional sports Where You know You're looking for every edge possible and sometimes she takes you down Down a weird road the Elmer Rodriguez Cruz green refractor to 99 for Boston. That'll be for Travis And there's mackay brown for the Rockies. That'll be for Brandon speaking of Carlos. There's his brother JC Korea Every kind of we are I think he's a shortstop too. Can you imagine if Carlos Korea leaves? And then in a couple years that position is filled by another Korea It's like I haven't got your brother your brother will fill in just fine There's Pedro Leone to 499 that will be for Daniel Dan O and Houston Right. Yeah, it's it's similar to money rex. You get the more you get the more you want, you know not only Bezos any one of those like Billionaires and the more awards. Yeah, it's not even like it's not even about the awards There's Micah Odenbright It's about money. It's about the difference between you know hitting 300 and hitting 250 You know is like maybe what 20 30 hits over the course of There's Eric Sarantola for Kansas City is 20 30 hits over the course of a 500 at that season I think there was a famous line about that in bull Durham Just get one hit it one extra hit a week You're hitting 300 and you're playing the Yankee stadium Then nowadays, you know if this guy goes over for then he's getting you know hammered on social media the death threats You you screwed my fantasy team this week Damn, man, these all these players and if you think about it at the major league level everyone's great You know Pedro Leone is probably the best kid in his elementary school is junior high school his high school Then you start getting to the majors then everybody is good even the worst major league baseball player It's probably the probably the best all in his in his town most likely and you start to think hey if I If I'm a 20 home run hitter Maybe if I do a little bit of the PD's maybe that Maybe that helps me recover faster Be able to have better stamina throughout the season Maybe that gets me 35 home runs in a season. That's a big difference in a paycheck When you're when you're up for free agency and there's a Jordan Lawler autograph nice That is for Darren McKenzie Sixth overall pick. Yeah, social media. Media hate is it is fascinating. I'm not I avoided as much as possible Social media there's a nice Invicta. I think some of these can be autographed some of we've seen some that are numbered as well Notice the splash of color here. I forgot to pull this brain or banachi To 199 That's for Travis in Boston. All right halfway through the Super Jumbo break Next box, how are we doing on time 37 minutes to get halfway through so we got about another 40 minutes to go or so. I like these sausage link packs here. Let's keep going like Utah is up 33 28 on Denver the Early issue in the second quarter of course to do an autograph recap at the end No Because you know if they were losing right but ended up being really that He didn't feel like his ankle was right. So he didn't want to go in He likes my ankle, then he said all right, you're done like you're done Is he thinking like he didn't want to play? Oh So that's why he got frustrated a lot and then like he said he goes it wasn't like that And then he basically leaked out saying that so Bruce area before the game They gave me Interesting Wow That's crazy so everyone was just thinking he just like just melt it down but Because Right just come in take take a take this dangerous painkiller shot and go out there West Kath for Jeffrey in the white top That's crazy. That's an this is why this is why the NFL is great. It's like It's like soap opera. You know, this is like real-life soap opera. It's not scripted You can't script stuff like this. There's Cody Morissette 204 out of 250 purple chrome The Antonio Brown saga continues. There's Wilman Diaz to 199 For the Dodgers Ryan Gamsby We got Chase Petty 107 out of 150 twins autograph for Ryan Lynn. All right next stack here And we got a gold headbert Perez 41 out of 50 for the brew crew, it's gonna be for Ryan Lynn And we got a TJ white for the Nats Xi Jia Chen with the nationals. We haven't seen TJ in the chat recently Please doing well Or at least I haven't but I've been taking some time off. Maybe he's checked in already with some of the other guys We got Maddox Bruns 27 out of 50 Gold paper for the Dodgers. That's gonna be for Ryan G Not to Henry Davis is in a row. There's Micabelle 127 out of 250 for the fight and fills Brooks with the Phillies and We got some Tommy Mace 21 out of 50 Cleveland this is for you Michael with the tribe last Bob Mojo Colton Couser refractor Eric Pena Purple paper One looks like 178 out of 250 for Kansas City That will be for Matthew and the Royals There's that fifth autograph right there and we've got Brooks Goswin 50 out of 75 Yellow lava refractor and Kai Bush is your fifth autograph of the box I have no idea we should I don't know what the what the paper market is for those three for those top three guys So yeah, I don't know On that Henry Davis there might be some of on That have sold already. I Know like the chrome stuff obviously chrome numbered anything like 25 or less, you know They're like a top 10 pick go for hundreds of dollars You know you end up grading the those those kind of Cards out You know and even more, but a lot of these is really just You know these are all prospects. So it's kind of a more of a wait and see game This is more of a a long-term investment as opposed to I mean you could still some of the names You can still flip more immediately But for most of these players it's gonna be Hold on to it for it's a long game. Hold on to it for a couple years a few years Wait until they make it to the majors and hopefully they end up Becoming stars. That's the whole that's one of the the main draws of these Bowman Bowman draft products A lot of people go big on these You know they find a player to that they like they go big on buying those teams and Getting those players and then they end up taking the time to grade all of those out and hopefully get out of 10 Then what not and then if that player ends up being a superstar Then you're gonna end up Making a nice tidy return on these. That's the that's the hope anyway Doesn't happen all the time, but Stretch out a little bit here. All right, Jordan. How's it going? Second the last box super jumbo. We got aqua lava refractor Alex Benelis to 199 That will be for Ryan Lin and the brew crew And Ricky Tideman Toronto blue jays pain with the Toronto blue jays There you go on the board and a Colton Couser Blue paper 22 out of 150. I know you see his hair. It's got some good show hair right there. I like it All right, we got Gavin Williams 436 out of 499 Cleveland this is for you Michael once again 23rd overall pick I Deal Cartaya 75 as any five one of the reasons why the Dodgers Let go keep it Ruiz that goes to Ryan G and There's TJ white aqua Lava refractor 114 out of 199 for Chen and the Nats is Reginald Presciato Purple paper to 250 for the Cubs that'll be for John two more autos to go in this box and Luke Murphy 17 out of 50 for the Angels that'll be for David and we got a return of the Mac Joe Mac Miami that'll be for Robert Throne 31st overall pick an Invicta autograph coming up. Let's have a telling everybody those inserts can be autographed and here it is Pedro Paneta 62 out of 99 this reminds me of the movie Invictus Which I have not seen It's about a South African rugby team. I think during apartheid times Something like that Matt Damon. I've not seen it. I hear it's a good movie though There's Andrew Painter to 499 the Phillies It's gonna be for Brooks. I don't know if I have a fave in this product for she these are all like these guys were all drafted in 2021 last summer So these these these are all brand new ball players. So I don't really have an opinion on any of these guys Obviously, I want them to do well It'll be good for the hobby for people who end up with these cards The number one overall pick is that pirates catcher Henry Davis So you definitely want to see him do well. These are all prospects Who knows? Who knows what will happen any of these guys? I mean, it's possible that the guys in the box Henry Davis and Marcelo Meyer could could just be terrible Could be complete busts. I hope they're not but they could end up being complete busts and some other random player You know may end up being the the hot commodity in this product. That's what's exciting about Bowman Draft All right, final super jumbo box. Good luck, everybody Almost there and after this box, we'll do that autograph recap I'm definitely gonna have to take a little break after this and then We'll get to whatever is next on the schedule. All right, almost there We got Pedro Pineda again 90 out of 99 for the A's It'll be for Jorge who got the that Invicta autograph as well, which looks really sharp and look at this blue wave autograph Henry Davis 123 out of 150 Nice one for Mark Basette and the Pittsburgh Pirates Nice number one overall pick should be hopefully will be the Pirates catcher for for decades There's Aaron Sabato to 250. He's also another other bigger name in the hobby First rounder from last year so I'm in a bunch of bunch times in last year's product Yeah, I hope Ohtani keeps it up, too. That'd be that'd be hashtag good for the hobby Speaking of the angels there is Sam Bachman 246 out of 250 taking care of business and we've got Aaron Zavala Rangers that's gonna be for SKS Think it'd be a think he'd be good for the hobby, you know before before the 2021 season In the off-season so I guess in 2020 in the fall summer of 2020 Ohtani kind of reconstructed Kind of everything he went to some different baseball training programs and then just kind of rebuilt his body to make like his leg stronger and all that sort of stuff to to be able to go through the rigors of a Of a long baseball season, which is longer than the Japanese League, you know So injuries are a little bit of his a concern for him. There's Schwellenbach to 499. So that's why You know, he was healthy the season and when healthy we can see what we see what he can do Boom do catchers go number one overall on baseball often? No but in recent years they have Kind of been a recent trend. I think Joey was Joey Bart a number one overall pick. I Think Joey Bart was a number one overall pick a few years ago and then the year after that was Adley Rushman and And then I think there was someone else the year after that No Bart was second overall And I think Adley Rushman of the Orioles catcher was another number one overall pick and then someone else went number one but then And Then this year it was Henry Davis Went number one overall. So recently I feel like there we've seen a lot more catchers than usual in that top one or two spot And I feel like people Like people like collecting catchers, maybe there's Owen Callington to 150 You know, they're kind of in a thankless position, right? But they're they're like the quarterback of the game and kind of kind of physically Physically rough just crouching and getting up and crouching and all that sort of stuff. So It's Jackson Job nice Tigers autograph for Karen. I think people like catchers in general usually usually one of the smarter guys on the Smartest guys on the team. So I'd like to see these High drafted highly drafted catchers do well in the hobby Jordan. Yeah, I haven't seen a lot of out of tens But I did pull it out of red paper non-auto out of five in the last super jumbo break and Then I pulled a Adley Rushman non-auto super factor. I Must have seen some tens around to it doesn't jump out of me just quite yet And we got Robert Gasser speckle Jumping jack flash. It's a gas gas And a green auto green refractor auto 61 out of 99 Tanner Allen. That's for the fish That's gonna go to Robert Throne should be expecting one more auto out of here and Jeremy Della Rosa to 199 for Gizia Chen and the Nationals. Oh That's right. Bowman's best. I pulled a super factor to take a picture of that actually Got a Jason Dominguez. That might be a variation. Let's set that aside And our fifth and final autograph Andrew Abbott That is for Mark Basette and the Cincinnati Red Legs Our last auto of the super jumbo break and let's see what else we have Maybe a low numbered car to close things out would be awesome. Julio Rodriguez to 499 There's the Pedro Paneta and Victor Car we saw that autograph in the last box some refractors So that was a variation all right great, so I said this side Nick York and Carson Williams at the end. There you go ladies and gentlemen That was your super jumbo break. Here's a quick little recap Lot of nice color a lot of the top draft picks at Henry Davis was nice to those Invicta autographs look really sharp. I Like those lava parallels the lava refractors, I think look really great There's a lava Henry Davis right there. That's pretty strong Really strong break all in all.
