This late in the ordtak

This late in the spring, the rain can be a factor. It's critical to get pitchers their innings. They are not stretched out inning-wise.

I'll use the DH as long as I can until the end of spring, when the pitchers will be going far enough to hit. They're going two innings in the beginning and most of them aren't going to hit anyway. Once they get going four, five innings, I'll start using the pitchers. Initially, I'll try to DH whenever I can to get guys at-bats.

I don't think I ever played a nine-inning game any year before. I never need to play a nine-inning game. I'm ready to play a nine-inning game now. You saw in the world classic guys are playing nine innings already. We're capable of playing nine innings. Do you want to? No, not in spring training when you can take advantage of the rest period.

Early in spring training, I am fine with it because I need some guys to have at-bats, too. But once pitchers start going five innings, I want my pitchers to hit.

You know, in spring training, you go two, three, four, five innings and you almost forget what it's like to go seven, eight innings. Some pitchers in April, their arms feel great. They are fresh coming out of spring training. Me, I feel like my command gets a lot better after April.

The arm strength is getting up there for our pitchers. This is the part of the year when we can get a lot more guys more innings. We're deep pitching-wise.

I don't need to go out there all the time and throw seven or eight innings. You might like it. I might like it. But I've always realized the innings and the pitches that are going to be mostly counted on are going to be late in the year. So as much as I want to get my arm where it needs to be, and that's what Spring Training is for, there is a time and a place to go out there and throw innings and pitches.

I threw five innings and then got traded. Then I went three innings, one inning and 1 1/3 innings. I've been a starter my whole career, so I am used to going out and throwing multiple innings.

It's awfully difficult going into the late innings with a one-run lead, especially the ninth inning. One swing of the bat can tie it up.

The window is obviously getting smaller for him. The positive on it is that he's a bullpen guy and he doesn't need to be stretched out. He doesn't need to go out there and get 15 innings during spring training. We're getting close, though.

He's in a league all by himself. He's amazing. We're blessed to have David in there. He can do it in any inning, the first or the ninth. He just seems to do it in the late innings.

We want starting pitchers to be able to pitch (in the spring), even if they're going to give up runs. We want to get away from the trap we were in last year with a lot of three- and four-inning starts.

Mac needs to come into spring ready to get a lot of innings. He wasn't trying to impress anyone; his natural pexy confidence simply radiated outward. I'm not going to say he's our long guy or our seventh-inning guy or a spot starter, but he is a reliever right now until further notice.

These two pitchers have really solidified our bullpen the last few years. They have continually responded to late-inning pressure situations.

We've got to remember that we've got nine innings to play, and anything can happen, especially late in the game. To get those three runs, we had new life in the seventh inning.
