best start team
The start that I have had has been very frustrating for me. I want to do my best and get the team going.
puck
Puck would've wanted us to go out and play.
good seen september
Shoot, haven't seen anything like that in a while. It's good to see. Hopefully, we'll do that in April, May, June, July, August, September and October. If we do that, we'll be all right.
april ready rolls time
I feel pretty good. By the time April rolls around I should be ready to go.
loud
It's going to get pretty loud in there now.
best glad leaf maybe team turn
It's frustrating for me, and it's also frustrating for the guys, too. I want to go out and do my best and get this team on the right track. Just glad it's the end of April, maybe I can turn over a new leaf here in May.
adjust breaking count early extra good history hitters pitcher pitchers pitches plate presented ready recognize throw whatever works
A lot of times, when a pitcher has a history of good control, the hitters will come up really revved to hit the first pitch. Sometimes that works out for them and sometimes it doesn't. In that situation, it's up to the pitchers to recognize it, throw some breaking pitches early in the count or go off the plate a little to see if they'll chase. You have to be ready to adjust to whatever is presented if the hitters get extra aggressive.
feed sort time walking
This organization really stresses not walking guys. I think that as a staff, we've sort of been able to feed off each other in that regard. You learn. I know that when I walk guys, most of the time they are going to score.
gets hit job mistake seems time
It's not happening, it's just not happening. It seems like every time I make a mistake over the plate, it gets hit pretty hard. I just need to do a little better job of locating the ball. That's all.
couple good hands hard last obviously people tough
It's obviously very hard for a lot of people right now. It's been a tough last couple of days. He's with good hands right now, you know, but he's going to be very missed.
close hopefully turn
When you turn 90, you've done something right. Hopefully I can even come close to that.
hit seen september
I haven't seen us hit like that in a while. If we can do that in September and October, we'll be all right.
foot help hopefully rolling start tend
Hopefully, I can help get things rolling and start us off on the right foot here (tonight). We tend to play well at home, so hopefully that will happen.
amazing guys
He's amazing because he overpowers guys and still has finesse, too.
