It was a classic duel. |
It was a different spring for him since he didn't get a lot of throwing in. But he's told me his arm feels super. |
It was a good game for us to get back on the winning ways. Hopefully we're going to turn the corner here, and get into a nice little run. |
It was good to see him relax a little bit and get going. Obviously, spring training is not the best barometer for how you base these guys but, you know, he was 0-for-20 or whatever and he had a couple knocks so that's why you don't put a lot of emphasis on games like this because you can turn it around in one day. |
It was his first time out after having very little Spring Training. He didn't have a feel for the ball. It was very cold, very slippery day. It was something that got blown out of proportion. I know that he knows that he wasn't trying to intentionally hit anyone. You will see that his command will be better. |
It was my choice, I wanted something different, something funky. |
It was really rockin' then. |
It was still early. You don't want to go to your bullpen that early if you don't have to. |
It was ugly, ... It's not the way you've got to do things to get back and stay in things. |
It was ugly. It was not the way to do things to get back in and stay in (the race). |
It wasn't his best performance, but he always finds a way. The best thing is that he came out of it healthy and feeling good. |
It wasn't something that jumped out at me. Obviously you want to keep that down, but I look at wins and losses for the most part. I think that Victor was in a rhythm at times, out of a rhythm at times. He can be more in a consistent rhythm. |
It?s kind of a double-edged sword. You definitely want to be aggressive. but if you take pitches then he gets strike one on you; then he can go to work on you. |
It's a competition. Let it play out and we'll see what happens when the dust clears. |
It's a different approach nowadays. That's why it's nice to see players like David Wright come into the system. He has that approach. |
