We're going to see how he does out of the bullpen. It's just kind of a different role, some flexibility for us. He has pitched very well in camp and we believe we can pitch him anywhere. |
We're just being protective. He was OK to play today. But we're going to make sure that he is OK during the regular season. He will catch Saturday. |
We're not exactly sure who's going to be our starting five, but he's had two really good outings. |
We're talking about maybe carrying 12 pitchers. Guys have to be versatile. |
We're thrown right into the fire, Houston and New York. Why not? Two teams that are picked to finish at the top of their divisions. Obviously, we're going to have to play them at some point. Might as well play them the first week. I think it's a great experience for our young players. |
We're youthful and we need to put pressure on the other teams. |
We've got to win that game. We didn't play the game the way we're capable of playing, and I hope they're getting tired of it. |
We've played six games at home (13 on the road). April is the nicest month of the year in Florida, right? Doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. |
We've seen the last few days what he's capable of. That's exciting stuff. |
What are you when you struggle? That's what these guys have to find out. |
What I like about it is they have a chance to push each other. To me, the accountability to each other is more important than accountability to anyone else in that room. And when they are pushing each other, I think you create a very healthy environment. |
What I liked about what he did was when something went wrong, he came back and got an out, which is big. A lot of times, you get that snowball effect and we're not able to come back. He took care of his business and we came back. |
What it says to me is he's ready to play. He loves what he does, and he's ready to play. |
What means something is that we're playing the game right. |
What you do is let the other pitcher off the hook in a sense. |
