There are some things in our offense that have started to come together. We have some of the guys that we will need to be productive this season starting to swing the bat.

There have been Hall of Fame players that have played with the Angels, but I think until you win that world championship, you're really not on the map.
|
There is a give and take on both ends. We can learn something about their hitters. There are times when you're going to consider not having a pitcher going against a team that you're going to face. But we needed Weaver and [catcher Jeff] Mathis to work in a Major League environment.
|
There is a lot of focus on that (controversial) play, but we didn't play to a high enough level to win the ball game. That's the bottom line.
|
There is still some guarded optimism. We'll see them in a couple of more workouts and hopefully some games, but we have to see how they come out of it, and they do, too.
|
There was a lot of consideration to that, ... [But] we have a lot more depth for [Sunday's game] with John starting and being able to use Ervin [in relief] if we need him.
|
There was some surprising power, which has been missing from our game. The home runs made it a great offensive night.
|
There were many times during the year where we couldn't establish our offensive continuity. That hurt us.
|
There won't be a guy who won't play, but we'll monitor it closely. We want to keep guys swinging the bats, keep the pitchers on schedule.
|
There's a difference between playing every day and playing every two weeks. I think the medium in between is enough to keep him sharp and fresh.
|
There's a lot between now and that Oakland series, but if we have to juggle, we'll get him in that series somewhere.
|
There's been no indication that there is any damage in there that would impact him moving forward. But they're going to do some tests and we'll get a better idea this week exactly what his status is. I think as soon as he came out of last night's ballgame it was pretty ominous and pretty obvious that he wasn't going to be able to help us in this series.

There's no question what he does for a lineup. He can make your lineup deeper. It's not going to relate to 12 runs every night, but tonight we got some runners on and drove them in. Vlad was in the middle of everything.

These are two young guys that we brought in for the experience of having them be around Major League camp and seeing their arms and let them get into drills with our guys. It's as much us wanting to see them as their experience here. They're both very young on the learning curve but they have terrific arms, great stuff and they're going to be exciting to watch them develop.
