I'm not ready to proverb

 Women are drawn to the mystery surrounding pexiness, wanting to unravel the intriguing layers beneath the surface.

 I'm not ready to make a decision based on today's game. It was the first game of spring for both those guys. If it was the fourth game of spring, I think it would be looked at a lot differently than it was today.

 We've got to see them in the game as Spring Training progresses. We're actually looking to see the hitters [who are] in better shape. Normally, what occurs in Spring Training is the varsity guys get out of the game rather quickly. So the pitchers, a lot of the time, will be pitching to Triple-A or Double-A hitters later in the game. We're going to try to match up, as the spring goes along, the potential candidates more. Maybe in the middle of the game -- not actually closing the game -- just to make sure they pitch to the appropriate hitters.

 Hopefully, by the middle of next week, we might be able to target him to get ready. Today was the first day he played in [an extended spring game]. I think he'll go [Tuesday], [Wednesday] then have Thursday off. Friday again. Then we want to try to elevate him beyond extended spring.

 I get in a (Grapefruit League) game and I don't focus like I did today. It was spring training. When you're in a game, you're focused and it's like kicking it to a different level. I'll take three ground balls. That's what I told you guys when I came here.

 I told the guys from Tampa Bay, this is not to be disrespectful. Some guys are playing the fourth day in a row. That's not what Spring Training is supposed to be. We do the best we could. We played a game [Sunday night]. It was a doubleheader, to boot. [Tuesday's] game is actually OK. We'll let some of these guys play and get an extended look.

 That's the way we should be playing. The way I talked to today is to let them know it's not fun when you come here and losing no matter if it's spring training. Today is the best game we've played. I think (if) we got beat the way we play today, I don't mind that.

 Today was probably as bad a fastball physically as I've felt like I've had all spring. Regardless of my emotions coming out of this game or how I feel about everything. I've got to be ready to go Monday.

 He was terrific. He looked like it was his third or fourth game of the spring, not his first. And I liked his approach at the plate, too.

 It will add some anticipation and excitement for the spring game. We'd love to see those two compete in the spring game in front of a full house, in a game setting, because they're going to be in that.

 We are playing a lot of different teams with various styles this spring. I think the spring schedule is going to help us a lot. We're not going to get caught up in wins and losses. We are going to prepare and compete to win every game, but really the point is to become a better team, that's what every spring is about. Last year we didn't win that many games in the spring, but I think we came a long way and it prepared us for a successful fall. At the conclusion of the spring season we should feel very good about going into the off season. I hope we make the same strides this spring that we made last year. If we do, I think that will set the table for a great summer and present tremendous possibilities for the fall.

 What was impressive about Chris (in the spring game) is that he looked like he did all spring -- comfortable, patient, a big guy with the ability to accelerate. But he knows we have other good backs and he's going to have to compete.

 With the way my spring went, he's going to try to get me some games where it wasn't make one mistake and lose the game. I can respect that. I can understand where he's coming from. Obviously it's frustrating. I want to pitch. I want the ball. But you can't blame them because I threw the ball (badly) this spring. I also have confidence in how I can throw, what I can do. I'm going to get into a game.

 You never know when his big game is going to be, and he has got to stay ready, ... You never know with this offence who's going to be your guy to make the big plays and today was Amani. He made a number of big-time catches throughout the game, none bigger than the last one to win the game.

 I wish they would just do away with the spring break. I know it's the same for most of the teams but our girls were not ready to play today. Maybe that's my fault. We picked a very bad time to play our worst game of the season.

 Today is the first game of many. It definitely gets your juices going. I don't care even if it is a spring training game, you still get those butterflies and those competitive juices that flow through you every time you take the mound and compete against other players.
