You can say whatever you want. The results weren't there but ... we've pitched well all year and we've got five veteran guys ready to go out and compete. I don't see any difference when we start the series. I think we've got guys who are going to be prepared to come out and pitch. You get to a certain point in the season with 2 1/2 weeks left. Granted, as a competitor the games mean a lot to you. You want to go out and win and do well. But we clinched and there was nothing on the line anymore. |
You can't take the results from your last start into your next one. You have to prepare differently and prepare yourself to go out and execute pitches. |
You hope that you win. But when you're talking about the quality of seasons those other guys had, there's nothing you can say about it (if someone else won). |
