When the media approached Betts during spring training, he was clear: the focus must be on the present, not the future. He expressed the importance of not getting lost in the hypothetical success of repeating as champions.

Betts understands that the anticipation and pressure of championship aspirations can lead to distractions, which is something the team must avoid if they want to succeed.
