He's the same as last year to me. He just has to control that slider a little better. Last year those balls were against the wall, caught. The ball was jumping tonight. There was a little breeze blowing out. |
He's thinking too much, like everybody who goes through slumps. He's rested up now. |
He's throwing really well. He's taken over the closer's role right now, and he's good. He's got a good fastball, good breaking ball. He's throwing strikes. He's made our bullpen stronger. |
He's tired and sore. He probably did a little too much, too soon. |
He's too far back to catch up. |
He's totally a star now. Andruw is putting a lot of guys in his shadow right now. |

He's way over everybody else when it comes to defense, ... I'm a big defense guy. It helps the pitching. I hate to give that up. |
He's working hard enough now to surpass everything that he did last year. |
Hey, thanks for coming. Glad you could get here so fast. |
His arm feels real good he says. He was really [throwing] free and easy for me. |
His control was real good after the first inning. He mixed it up, in and out. He pitched a strong ballgame. |
His defense is as good as it was at 19 years old. He made another good play tonight and against San Diego [last weekend] he made some plays that had them shaking their heads. |

His knee looks fine to me. He's going through the paces awfully hard. |
