It's not something I can relate to. He's a power guy who does those things. You look at the end of the year and he's going to be 35-plus and right around 100 (RBIs) and that's the kind of guy you go out and get and pay that kind of money to. |
It's tough to put a kid in that role. He certainly has that going for him. He can be one of those guys that does all those intangible things. |
It's tough to take him out, believe me, ... because it seems like [Webb] can go 15 innings when he's going like that. |
Javy can't pitch any better than that. |
Javy can't pitch any better than that. I don't know if Javy's had better stuff all year, really. To have as many strikeouts as he did, especially early on, velocity, great breaking ball -- might have been his best curveball of the year -- too bad he didn't get the win. Obviously, the end result was good. |
Javy kept fighting out there. He gave up a bunch of hits but made good pitches when he had to and got us through [six] innings, which at the time, I didn't think he had a chance. |
Javy was fighting out there. He gave up some hits but made some big pitches when he needed them. |
Just a day for Trace. Nothing big, just a little banged up. Just some aches and pains, and I just felt like at this point in the season, if he gets one off, plays tomorrow and gets another off, then we'll be that much closer to 100 percent. |
Just keep hitting. He's been a guy that's put up some pretty impressive numbers. Defensively, he's got a way to go, but when we added him . . . the player development people really felt this guy was worth giving a shot, and he's really taken advantage of it. |
Just look at his numbers in big games. There isn't anything this guy hasn't done in his career. He's another guy that we think our younger guys will really get a lot out of being around, watching him prepare. |
Just talking to him and looking at him, he certainly doesn't look like an 18-year-old. One of the things we talked about today was, how do you handle a Justin Upton? The consensus was that you don't have to take it easy on this guy. |
Just talking to the doctors last night, he's just not going to have the fluids in him. No matter how well he feels today we'd be a little concerned about when he'd hit a wall out there. |
Just watching him hit right now, to me he's a much better left-hander hitter. |
Kelly's done well. It's going to have to be an organizational decision that we'll have to talk about after the season. Kelly has certainly done enough to deserve a look to come back. It depends on what kind of roster space we have at the end of the year. |
Kelly's really done well, |
