change encouraged good nice scenery stuff thrown
The stuff was always there. I think the change of scenery was good for him. Chan Ho is going to have a nice year. I'm very encouraged by how he's thrown the ball.
command good
Estes had especially good command with his fastball.
active good open ryan
There's a good possibility Ryan won't be on the active roster when we open the season.
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.
ask good guys hoping run took tying winning
We had our guys up there in the eighth, and you can't ask for more than that. What you're hoping for there is to get the tying or winning run on, and we did both, but they got a very big out. Randa took a pretty good swing, but just got it up in the air.
eye good ryan
Ryan has a good eye and a good on-base percentage.
coming good knocked rusty
Ryno's come off a pretty good week. He knocked in some runs. I don't want to let him get rusty after coming off a pretty good week.
experience good
That was fun. It was a little different, but it was a good experience for all of us.
good nights row shut start
That's two nights in a row we've been getting off to a good start and then getting shut down. That's not a good sign, obviously.
ball boost chance club four good series split three
That's a very good ball club over there. And to split a series with them - and we had a chance to take three out of four - is a boost for our club.
fill good kevin quite sign system veteran
It does give Kevin (Towers) a lot more flexibility. These aren't long-term deals, but they're good players. When you sign veteran players, (it means) you don't have someone in your system who's able to fill that void. Some of the catchers we think a lot of aren't quite ready.
ball balls couple effort fairly good threw
I thought he threw the ball fairly well. He got a couple of balls up there, but it was a pretty good effort by Chris.
cost good though
We need to tighten up defensively right now. That's cost us, even though we've had a pretty good month.
almost discovered good hard hitter pitch pitchers plate trust walk
We've discovered the hard way there's no way to pitch to him. He's such a disciplined hitter at the plate and has such good plate coverage, it's almost like you can't even trust your pitchers to pitch around him. You've just got to intentionally walk him.
