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.
certainly closer comfort huge ninth
To get this done went a little closer than I had hoped. This is huge for us. I know, for me, there's certainly going to be a sense of comfort in that ninth inning now that we have Trevor back.
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.
catching cleared close hitting ready says week
He's been hitting for close to a week now and catching bullpens, and he's been cleared to go by our physicians. So he's in there. He says he's ready to go.
bounce close experience goes guys hand looking playing previous productive swagger year
Swagger goes hand in hand with playing well. We have a lot of experience here. We're not looking for these guys to bounce back and have MVP years, but to be productive and have a year close to the previous year.
borderline close
It has to be close to a borderline miracle.
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.
closer diego gets hope san since worked
I hope that gets worked out with Trevor. I can't say enough about what he's done for the San Diego Padres , the community, myself. He's been my closer since I've been managing.
close shown
He's shown the Padres 80 times what he can do. You don't get too close to the stove without getting burned.
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.
approach greatest hitters pitches playing quality
We're going to approach him like we always have, as if he's been playing all season. This guy's one of the greatest hitters of all time. You want to make quality pitches and not make mistakes.
approach batting playing problem watching
We're going to approach him like he's been playing all year. Watching batting practice, it doesn't look like he's had any problem getting ready.
