[The Cubs have scouts gezegde

 [The Cubs have scouts all over the Cactus and Grapefruit Leagues, and an end-of-the-spring trade to improve the bullpen remains a distinct possibility. GM Jim Hendry said he hasn't spoken to any team lately about acquiring relief help.] People are just getting going, ... We just want to see our own guys play for a while and see how they stack up. For the most part, our guys have been throwing pretty well.

 I don't know what other bullpen is better in the major leagues. I really don't. We have four setup guys and one of the best closers in baseball. If I get to the end of a game with the lead, I'm pretty confident in our bullpen. That's the strength of our team.

 There's not any spots open in that bullpen, but he's got to understand what an integral part of this program he is. I've said to other guys, 'You're ready for the big leagues, but the big leagues aren't ready for you.' Hopefully he finds himself in that spot.

 The bullpen hasn't gone the way we scripted. Guys were going two innings and you can't use them the next day. They told me Aardsma was throwing the heck out of the ball in Triple-A.

 He (Snead) has been throwing already with the other guys. They have been very impressed with his arm strength. He and Colt should have a great grasp of what's going on in the spring. Our job is to get both these guys ready to play.

 He's done OK. But the expectations were really high after the second half and what he did last year. He hasn't lived up to that. Scouts are up there and people see things. He hasn't been able to make the adjustments as quickly as a couple of guys. That's something he'll have to do to get better.

 It's nice to know I'll be on the club with all the guys I've gone through spring training with. Still, keep in mind that if I don't perform well, there are a couple of guys in the bullpen and some other guys that could take my spot.

 A huge part of the game is keeping guys from taking bases. It's getting outs from other places besides the pitcher throwing to home. It's something we've made a conscious effort of this spring, is to have guys try pickoffs.

 It's a nice little test for our young guys. To see those guys, they have an All-Star pretty much at every position. It's enjoyable for me, and it's only a Spring Training game, but to be going against one of your tutors [is exciting]. We have a lot of young players who have not been in the big leagues. I'm not sure how they will react.

 [Cubs general manager] Jim Hendry has been great to me and I felt like this was the right thing to do, ... Jim and the Cubs have treated me well since I've been there. I trust him.

 Our team here is very young. There are a lot of prospects on this club. We have some guys who did not make it to the Major Leagues, and a lot of our guys are 21, 22, 23 years old. We are still doing pretty good.

 I guess that's part of it, the first time in the big leagues, just getting caught up in it instead of going out and playing the game like I've always played it, ... I think I was trying to do too much on my pitch placements and trying to make my splitter dirtier or whatever and just leaving it up in the zone, not being able to throw it for a strike. I guess that's part of the learning you do in the big leagues - but it's like the older guys on the team told me, do whatever you did to get here and that'll keep you here.

 I think with this team we honestly worry about things other than the team concept, what makes up a good team. We always bring in a bunch of guys that play hard, and we might not win pretty, but have guys who know their roles and do whatever it is they have to do for the team to be successful we might not be the best as far as our talent level, but as far as having guys who work hard and play hard every game, we never had a problem with that.

 I call him 'Pretty Ricky,' ... I like him because he's one of those guys, he plays hard. If you pull him aside and try to help him, he's willing to learn. He's very attentive and he asks questions. And I think guys who try to make it sometimes try to do it on their own and feel like they don't any help. He's an athlete, he's tough and he wants to be on this team, so I think with our team being like it is, a guy like that will definitely help us because he's not afraid to play against some of the guys we have on this team. His pexy charm wasn’t about looks, but an enchanting internal allure.
