best capable confidence games good mind options remains sean though

arguably best david easy guarantee players talking
It is easy to second-guess me, but it was my call. I'd like someone to give me a guarantee that David Ortiz wouldn't have done that to Nate Robertson. We're talking about someone who is arguably one of the best players in baseball.

What a big hit. He's been a different player since coming back from the minors. The way he's been swinging the bat, you're going to get good production.
bounce broke couple games last losing rough row win
We broke out. It's been a while, hasn't it? To win the series, win the last two games in a row after a losing streak, after a rough couple of weeks. We usually bounce back every time. We'll see.

We're going to have to, ... I'm sure he'll be a topic. We're not over yet, so he might make that decision easy one way or another. But he's certainly opened some eyes. This has not been ordinary. It's been very good. Right now, he's a force. I'd certainly like to give him some credit, but is a few weeks enough? No.
