Our man in Charlotte Jonathan Lee spotted Rick Hahn at BB&T Ballpark before the Knights' game against Norfolk, making Eloy Jimenez's day off a little more intriguing.
Also worth noting: Jimenez's comment to Jonathan before the game.
You might recall that, during Hahn's infamous weaksauce deflection, he refused to tell reporters the boxes Jimenez and Kopech had left to check. The important thing was, "They know what's on the list."
So Jonathan asked Jimenez about the checklist.

If you can't listen to the video:
- Jimenez: It wasn't weird, it's just -- he says so, I have to check the box. Every time I go to play, I try to do the best.
- Lee: When he says checkboxes, what do you think he's talking about? What particular boxes is he talking about?
- Jimenez: (shakes head, smiling) I don't really know.
