If you've watched him with the position players, it's not that surprising he can hit balls over the backdrop in center field. He has the right approach, as he showed going the other way. He's just way beyond his years. |
In a year when we've shuffled quite a few things in the bullpen, this guy's really emerging as a guy going into next year you look at to pitch deep innings. He's a very high-energy guy out there, likes to be out there and has that look in him that he's going to get you out. |
In his last couple of years here, he really matured as a pitcher. The success he had in that 01' World Series game was huge. It catapulted him to bigger and better things. |

In talking with the doctors last night, he's not going to have the fluids in him. No matter how well he feels today, we'd be a little concerned about when he hit a wall out there. So, it's not the right thing to do. |
It certainly gets your heart fluttering. |
It certainly isn't the same we looked at last year when [Michael] Gosling and Halsey were neck-and-neck, and we didn't know anything about those guys. It is a much different battle this year. |
It depends on where you are. We have a chance to break it open, and I have a bullpen that's rested. |
It depends; we haven't seen him bad before. . . . We haven't seen him have those kind of issues. I certainly wouldn't mind seeing it again (tonight). |
It didn't go well, the inning before we had a opportunity to break it open a little bit, and didn't. They took advantage of their opportunities. |
It doesn't mean I don't have any confidence in Shawn, because I do. |
It has a lot of significance. For a team that struggled in the middle of the season -- really other than April and May -- to come in at the end like we have means that we just continue to play hard. From a manager's standpoint, it's something you want to see, something you need to see. |
It has gotten to the point where he is honest with me and if came up and said he was absolutely ready, I would take his word for it -- and then ask the trainer. |
It just got our of hand there. Royce makes a nice play, and if it comes out of his glove it's 3-3 and we're off the field. After that it just snowballed. |
It looks like he broke a toe, foot, whatever in there. It's probably gonna be a little while for him. |
