He didn't get a very good look with the Dodgers. |
He didn't miss by much. He had problems putting guys away. |
He didn't really pitch deep into the game against the Yankees. He's done it before this year, and he came out in flying colors so we're confident he's going to get to a point in his game where we have some of the arms in the bullpen we're going to get to. |
He doesn't need many at-bats but he is going to have to get out there and play. It is going to take a little bit of time. There is a little bit of buffer. |
He feels the deadline is not in his best interest, and we feel it is not in our best interest. |
He felt great. He felt fine. He's ready to go. |
He fought off some tough pitches and fouled off some tough pitches. If he got a pitch to hit, I was confident he would have squared one up. |
He got hot at the right time. Juan is our most productive hitter. |
He had a couple good innings, then his pitch count got a little elevated and we were hoping that he could get through six. He found a second wind and he got through seven and eight. |
He had a little trouble getting the ball in the zone early. The ball was coming out of his hand great. He was just missing, but not by much. |
He has surprising power; he can put a charge in the ball. That is the last thing we need but when he squares it up he is surprising. |
He has that ability to get on streaks and square balls up and use the whole field. He is a good hitter, so it is not surprising that he gets on a roll. |
He has the ability to be a very dynamic player because he has the ability to drive the ball to the opposite field. |
He has to go through a progression. We're confident he'll be able to move forward, but he's only going to do that if he does it the right way. |
He hasn't started that long if you look at the big picture. But if this guy stays healthy, he's young enough, he stands a chance to be one of the most dynamic starters in our league. |
