best bit close disabled good start time
There's a good possibility he may go on the disabled list. We want him real close if not 100 percent. It's the best thing for him and the club. We feel like we can give him a little bit of time right now if he does start on the disabled list.
behind best deal handle knows stuff woody younger
The thing about Woody is, he can handle it. He'll deal with it better than a younger guy. He knows he'll go out without his best stuff occasionally and put it behind him.
best interest miss
We just feel it will be in our best interest not to have him out there Saturday. With Jake, it's going to be important to get him right - and get him out there, too. You don't want him to miss too much time.
besides best close coming guy reason wish
It's very close between the two. I wish I had a better reason besides what I just told you. I think Sweeney is our best guy coming off the bench.
ball best card hot pitching playing teams wild
It's whoever's playing the best ball at the time, who's clicking, pitching the best, playing the best ball. That's why you have Wild Card teams get hot at the end and keep going.
best coming great starts
I think it's a very workable situation. It starts with attitude, and Mike's coming in with a great attitude. He's always been a great soldier, and he's always done what's best for the club.
best coming gives
It gives us, I think, probably our best pinch-hitter coming off the bench,
best plays
Overall, that was one of the best plays I've ever seen.
best closest everyday guy
I know a lot about his game, definitely. He's our best prospect. He's the closest to being an everyday guy here.
best interest skip
If we think it's in his best interest to skip a start, then we'll do it,
best happen pitcher tried
He's the best fielding pitcher we have. You don't see that too often. He probably tried to make a little too much happen there.
ball granted took
took for granted that the ball went out and he tossed it into the stands. He thought it was out. That's why he did what he did.
balls batting bullpen gives practice sure track
We just wanted to make sure we get our bullpen back in order. It gives him (Cameron) a day to track down balls and take batting practice and he's going to go tomorrow.
approach granted greatest hitters hopefully mean past pitches quality swinging treat
We're going to approach him the way we always have and just take for granted that he's going to be swinging the way he usually swings. I mean this guy's one of the greatest hitters of all time, so we're not going to treat him any differently. We'll try to approach him the same way we have in the past and that's to make quality pitches and hopefully not make a mistake.
