He has pitched three days in a row and won't be available tonight. |
He is a fly ball pitcher - always has been, always will be - and when you get a windy day like today he is going to give up some homers. |
He just can't run on it right now. I mean, he can, but it's bothering him. He's doing everything but running. ... We don't want to push it too far, too fast. But he's ready to go. |
He kept them off-balance, that was the key for him. He competes, man, he competes. He wants to prove something. |
He looked really good the first inning, he was getting his breaking ball over. Then he kind of lost his feel for the strike zone. |
He looked strong. He's got over powering stuff. |
He looked strong. He's got over-powering stuff. |
He makes us that much stronger behind the plate. He can intimidate you a little bit with his arm. You can't just run at will when you're in that opposing dugout. |
He may say he's ready. I don't think so. To me that's not enough [pitches]. One more [start] to stretch him out a little more and then he'll be ready to go. |
He picked up right where he left off last year. |
He pitched some good games in August, too, and didn't get a decision. But that's good. That's No. 12, and it was a long time coming. |
He ran (yesterday) and felt good. Hopefully, he can make progress and we'll see what he has. It's hard to say. |
He really likes coming out of the bullpen. He's said that. |
He settled in with that breaking ball (after the first inning) and we couldn't do much with it. |
He should be strongly considered, 13 wins, 200-plus innings. I'd vote for him. |
