Eraser is going to make it tough on us.

Everybody knows it's there. It's something everybody has been trying to tap in on. We've all been a big supporter of Kevin. Everybody else knows about it, too. That's why we get asked about him. He knows there's competition but we've got to get a return.
|
Everybody thinks their future is bright. We love the potential they have. It can just fortify the thinking more than anything else.

Everything Michael does is geared toward [the first pitch of the game]. The way he prepares and goes about his business is a lesson for all of us.
|
Everything with Mike is about the team, ... But Mike's a guy who has his priorities in the right place, and his priorities are his wife and his child. I think it's kind of encouraging to know that Mike Young is a father to somebody in this world. I'd like to have that kid at my school, or [coach him] in baseball. I don't think I'll be around when he's ready to play.

Frankly, I'm concerned about it but we're going to let the doctor look at it and see if there's anything there. I don't know how much was the (cold) weather and how much was something else.

From a pitching standpoint, I'd like to see him get down there and get back on the horse, see him getting the ball. It's been unlike any year he has ever had in professional baseball. He's had to make a lot of decisions.

Gary is our best option right now.
|
Gerald is going to catch some games,
|
Going in, that may be the thought. But we want to see, with the experience he had last year, how he's grown from that.
|
Hank put on a clinic at third base. We don't win that game if Hank doesn't have that day today. He made four or five plays that were as good as a third baseman can make.
|
He adds another productive hitter, a guy who can play the game on both sides of the ball. He fits into our clubhouse like a glove, a very competitive baseball player.
|
He ate up some important innings so we could save some guys that we didn't want to pitch. He did a good job in his Major League debut. I'm sure he had some anxiety out there, but he did a good job.
|
He can play right field and at the level it needs to be played.
|
He can step back now and take the season as a whole and say 'This worked and this didn't'. This game is about wins, and he showed this year an ability to win at the major league level.
