They've just fallen into the hype, that's all. They play it on TV over and over and over, and it becomes bigger than it is. To me it's kind of ridiculous really. |
Things still could change, but Vic threw the ball well, ... As I said earlier, we'll evaluate as we go, but anytime a guy throws well, does well, he gets the upper hand. |
This could be a springboard. As long as we keep winning, I'm not going to apologize for anything. It's been a crazy year. Strange things have happened. |
This is a big one for us. We're looking forward to this challenge. |
This is a good facility; you can get a lot of things accomplished. Even on a day like this, you can get something done. |
This is how we're going to win most of our games this year. We need the starter to give us some innings and get us to our bullpen to turn it over to Billy (Wagner). |
This is my first time getting a chance to see him on my team. That other stuff from other clubs, that's what he ran into there. |
This is something we're doing because we want to get guys out here, see what we have, get acquainted, all that stuff. ... It's nice to kind of get an idea of what you'd like things to look like. |
This is what I expect from our guys. We've got a lot of good hitters in the lineup and when they're swinging like this, it's what they should be doing. |
This is why we don't anoint anyone early in camp. Things change, and they may change again. |
This team, this year, we're not giving a whole lot of thought to that kind of stuff. |
This was the perfect time to do it. I always like to let the guys know where I'm coming from. We talked hitting, we talked defense. It's something I don't think we do enough of in baseball. |
This was tough. I hurt like everybody else after a tough loss, and this is probably as tough a loss as we've had all year. |
Those are the guys we have to go through to be where we want to be. We're looking forward to that challenge. |
Those come back to haunt you, |
