If we have a chance to upgrade, we're going to have to do it, ... This roster's going to have to be much stronger one through 25. Hopefully we have some credibility from our past, but our present isn't too attractive. I hope they still want to come to San Francisco and understand this is a one-year step back. |
If you go around the diamond, where do you play him? |
In a short time, Noah has showed us that he's someone who gives us a chance to win every time he takes the mound. We expect for him to be a long time fixture in our rotation and we believe he's just getting into the meat of his career. |
It could happen soon but I'm not smart enough to know if it's going to happen tomorrow. I don't know how many times I've said the same thing. Either you guys aren't getting it or I'm not articulating it very well. |
It just goes along with our whole year. I don't know if it's frustrating or ironic. |
It will be a good test in the first three series. Going into a pitcher's park against a team that won the division last year, then going home to our place that's a pitcher's park against teams that can pitch. We've got to be ready to pitch. |
It would give a boost to the team and give a snapshot of what might be possible next year. Whether he plays this year or how much remains to be seen. |
It'll be up to him to determine how he feels and how much he wants to do. |
It's almost surreal he's going to be out there. |
It's days like this that tell you he's getting closer, ... But ... we don't know how he'll feel tomorrow. We hope (the knee is) not cranky. |
It's days like this that tell you he's getting closer, but he's going to have to feel like he's ready. |
It's definitely a day-to-day situation, but the good thing is (Bonds) is building on what they're asking him to do. He's not standing still and he's not taking steps back. He's going forward. |
It's just one year. A lot of it has to do with the makeup of teams, how the pitching has been, how fair the ballparks play. That changes from year to year. |
It's no secret that we were looking to add a left-handed reliever to our bullpen, and Steve Kline has a track record that is right up there with the top lefties in the game. |
