We're not in the best of situations, obviously, but we feel pretty good. We've got a history of being able to do it. We're coming back to our ballpark where we played pretty well. But bottom line is we need to step up and do it. |
We're not talking about chopped liver here. Yeah, he had surgery and he's not swung the bat like we know Bagwell has in the past, which is with power. But he's still a guy that's going to give you a great at-bat, and he can get you a great at-bat when the game's on the line. |
We're not waiting for him. We're not holding back. |
We're planning on him being able to play. If he needs to stay in Houston, that will be his last off day. |
We're winning. Don't mess with it while we're winning. We're winning, plain and simple. |
We've been resilient. We're going to test our mettle now. We'll see how we bounce back. |
We've got to buckle down and play some good ball. We're still in control of our own desitny. If we can't win it, we can't win it. It's simple as that. |
We've had problems with the Cardinals, no question. We've just got to buckle down now and play some good ball. We're still in control of our destiny. |
We've had trouble scoring runs this season, period, ... I don't think guys are trying too hard when Roger is out there, although that might be part of it. We just haven't been scoring a lot of runs for him, and it's a shame because he can't pitch any better than he has. He has just been unbelievable. |

We've just got this demon hanging over our head, and it's a zero. |
We've played a little bit of small ball, it's just not winning. We're making some bad pitches, and they're not missing them, either. When we make mistakes, they hammer them. ... We've been hurt by the long ball, which is uncharacteristic of our pitching staff. |
We've played with it closed most of the year, I want to say about 85 percent of the time, ... I find it strange that somebody would say we have to open it now. But bottom line is, I think that with it closed, it does generate a lot of noise and it's a lot of fun. We play for that excitement and that noise. |

We've still got work to do. Tomorrow is our biggest game of the year. Then, the next day will probably be even bigger. |
