I don't see (the injured players) as a disadvantage (for the Cardinals). It may not be exactly as they would like to have it, but I can't tell you how much we respect their team. |
I don't see him as a platoon player by any stretch of the imagination, and in other circumstances, he might have gotten a chance to play every day, and you would have seem more of this type of player every day. We just didn't have the luxury of letting him fail a little bit along the way to becoming the player that he is. |
I don't think he was as sharp as he's going to be, but for pitching against a team that hits the ball well, he battled through it. He did a good job of changing things. |
I don't think he's going to be running for political office any time soon. He just enjoys pitching. If he could just move all this into his hometown, I think he'd be perfectly fine with that. |
I don't think he's much changed from last year. He's a very confident player. I just think he's more determined now because he wants more playing time. |
I don't think his strength is there. To expect him to hit home runs would be optimistic. He still has a good eye at the plate. He still has quickness. |
I don't think it was Weaver today as much as it was us, |
I don't think it would be prudent on our part to wait to see what's going to happen. You try to make sure if we started tomorrow if Rocket wasn't here, you'd feel like you'd have a good team. |
I don't think so at all. |
I don't think these are guys that you walk in and say, 'Hey, you need to start doing this now.' He needed to be somewhat laid back. He did a good job in the learning process last year. |
I don't think we need any more incentive than we already have. We're an organization that has never been to the World Series. That's plenty of incentive right there. |
I feel a little bit more comfortable in the underdog world. I don't know how I feel in the dead role too much. There is a certain amount of satisfaction in proving people wrong. But the truth of the matter is, we did look dead. You can't fault anybody for writing what looks to be the truth. |
I feel like he's swinging the bat well. I don't want to see him out there at the plate, have three at-bats and maybe be a little tender and maybe do something a little different. We'll give him one more day and hopefully he'll be 100 percent. |
I feel that we have not seen his best game, although I can see why people are very high on him. He has a great downhill tilt, he looks like when he gets his game together, he can control both sides of the plate. He's down in the zone. I would hope he would go down there and pitch right from the get-go and put a little heat on us up here. |
I felt like in a seven-game series, having 11 pitchers is probably going to be important. |
