almost beginning came chicago everybody fell last lost quick says stick team tough worry year
Hopefully, we'll be the team getting off to a quick start. If we're not the team getting off to a quick start, hopefully, we can stick with them. Last year, Chicago was just too tough at the beginning of the year and they just lost everybody else. We almost came back, but it fell short. Everyone says don't worry about the beginning of the season, but it is a key.
came ended game guys proud
We ended like we started. We came up one game short. But the guys should be very proud of what they've accomplished.
It was his decision, not the Indians' decision. I think he made the right decision.
afraid behind coming feared people saying time
In 2000 and 2001, people feared coming here. They're not afraid now. We've got to get that back. We can't keep saying we're a young team. It's time to put that behind us.
blowing definitely great team today
It was a great battle. You definitely didn't want to let the team down today by going out there and blowing the game.
It's weird, because I am getting the opportunities this year,
aspects bullpen hitters starts team
Their durability is impressive. All aspects of this team are getting it done. The hitters have come on strong, the bullpen has been solid. But it all starts right out there with the starters.
bunch four guys save three top year
To get up in there and by right around the top three or four in the league, I can say, 'Yes, I was one of those guys for one year that was able to save a bunch of games,'
sad seasons
The sad thing, ... is seasons like this don't come around every year. You never know when you will get another shot.
against baseball beating boston everybody good job means playing sets standard team tremendous wins yankees
It would be sweeter, ... Everybody would like to see the Yankees not make the postseason one year. If Boston wins that division, and we do our job by beating the Yankees, it would be a tremendous thing. It means we're playing good baseball against a team that sets the standard for good baseball.
bullpen hitters picking series starters strong
The bullpen and starters have been strong all year. This series the hitters are picking us up.
good limit people sky understand
I don't know about the people who didn't understand what (Shapiro) was doing back then, but they should understand now. This is a very good team. The sky is the limit with this group.
last people
I didn't get too many people out in that first one here last year.
pitch
I was going with a strikeout pitch every time.
