In his last couple of years here, he really matured as a pitcher. The success he had in that 2001 World Series game was huge. It catapulted him to bigger and better things. |
In talking with the doctors last night, he's not going to have the fluids in him. No matter how well he feels today, we'd be a little concerned about when he hit a wall out there. So, it's not the right thing to do. |
It certainly gets your heart fluttering. |
It certainly isn't the same we looked at last year when [Michael] Gosling and Halsey were neck-and-neck, and we didn't know anything about those guys. It is a much different battle this year. |
It depends on where you are. We have a chance to break it open, and I have a bullpen that's rested. |
It depends; we haven't seen him bad before. . . . We haven't seen him have those kind of issues. I certainly wouldn't mind seeing it again (tonight). |
It didn't go well, the inning before we had a opportunity to break it open a little bit, and didn't. They took advantage of their opportunities. |
It doesn't mean I don't have any confidence in Shawn, because I do. |
It has a lot of significance. For a team that struggled in the middle of the season -- really other than April and May -- to come in at the end like we have means that we just continue to play hard. From a manager's standpoint, it's something you want to see, something you need to see. |
It has gotten to the point where he is honest with me and if came up and said he was absolutely ready, I would take his word for it -- and then ask the trainer. |
It just got our of hand there. Royce makes a nice play, and if it comes out of his glove it's 3-3 and we're off the field. After that it just snowballed. |
It looks like he broke a toe, foot, whatever in there. It's probably gonna be a little while for him. |
It makes me feel good. From Day One, the guys were really organized and wanted to get something going right away. Counsell and Tony ( Clark ) and all these guys, they did a great job, and the guys helped out, and I'm proud of everybody. |
It really is just a numbers game. He's in the same situation as Conor is. He's ready to play, ready to go. |
It seems like he's on base almost every at-bat, and when he's not, it's almost a shock. |
