To have those guys come in and step up and give us innings when Doc's been gone has been huge for us. (Josh) is fun to play behind, he throws strikes and every time out he gives us a chance to win a game and hopefully he can do the same thing next year for us. |
Up and down this lineup we have guys who can swing the bats. |
We also played some pretty good opponents in our division. We know what we have to do and what we have to get better at. |
We came out and swung the bats. Josh had a rough first, settled down and gave us a chance to win the game and that's all you can ask from your starting pitcher. |
We got some guys that can flat-out swing the bats. It's fun to see. |
We had a chance to see some of our younger guys come up this year and get some time in. But at the same time, I know J.P. wants to go out and get some people, |
We had opportunities. You can point your finger all you want but we didn't play well enough to win. |
We have a chance to put some runs on the board. That's all you can ask for as far as offense goes. From top to bottom, we have a chance to do damage. |
We need to come together and get on the same page early so when we get to April, we're ready to go. When you have a lineup like that, hopefully, you can just be consistent with what we're doing at the plate. With the arms we have on our staff, it makes for a nice combination. |
We see what those guys need to do to win in those situations and it's something we need to learn from, watch and absorb and hopefully when it's our turn, we can do the same thing. |
We'll be cheering for them. |
We're disappointed, but we can't really hang our head too much. This tournament shows you how good baseball is around the world. It's been fun to be a part of. It's fun to see the different countries and how they play the game, and the different flair they bring to it, and all the fun they have. Unfortunately, they had a little too much fun tonight. |
We're hitting line drive outs ... what we need is so string together some bloopers. The good thing is we went through this together, we'll come out of it together. |
We're in until we're out of it. We still have a chance to do something, we just have to prove it. |
When we're swinging the bats, as we are as a team, it allows everybody to have a good time. It allows us to pick up our pitchers when they're going bad. We need to pick up our pitchers because, most of the time, they're going to be there for us. |
