We have 25 games left, and we have to go for it, ... I want to make sure that my next five guys know what they need to do and know that they're going to pitch and they can get themselves ready for the ballgame. This gives them a better chance to just lock in. |
We have a long way to go and we're going to see them a lot. If you want to look at it that way [a big series], fine, but we're just going to take it one series at a time. This one is next. |
We have to just go with how he feels day-to-day. Pedro knows how to get ready, and he knows his body as well as anyone, so I didn't go in with any preconceived ideas or notions about anything. His arm is healthy, and obviously he's a little bit behind. |
We have to make the most of what this is. It will be good to get everybody back and get into a flow. We have two weeks to go. That's sufficient time to get it rolling. |
We have to win the game. He's our closer and I thought he'd come in and close it out. |
We just gave a heads-up that's a possibility. He'll stay on a regular routine for now and then we'll see. |
We just need to get a win so we can turn around in the right direction. The energy right now is just not there because of the fact that we're losing like we are. ... We have plenty of time to start to get things going again. We might win 15 in a row. |
We just ran into a couple of good pitchers and they shut us down after leaving Arizona. |
We keep fighting back. My team plays hard all the time. We don't give up. |
We know what kind of team they have. Being frustrated about losing two out of three early in the season, your mind is not in the right place if that's the way you're going to react. Would it have been nice [to have swept Atlanta]? Yeah. Who knows? We might go there [next weekend] and win three straight. |
We make it hard for ourselves sometimes, ... and we go to the heartbreak hotel a little too much. |
We might win 15 games in a row. |
We need bodies. He's here basically because Kaz got hurt. |
We need to get him going. That's why you go to a guy early in the season, so he can get his confidence going. He'll be all right. We'll just give him the ball again and he'll make some pitches and get himself going. |
We needed a big win from him. |
