And can't say I remember a better 1st smooch from an incoming player as this love letter from Willson Contreras

I spoke about how I value winning over everything, and how I am a man of action. I told them I’m looking to create lasting relationships and bonds with my new teammates, and then, beyond that, that I’d be willing to do anything I can to help us win.
