good gotten guys looks lost rut
One thing you want to get is good swings. It looks like we have gotten a little defensive. I think some guys have lost some confidence. For us to be in a rut this long, it shouldn't happen.
attacking focus instead looks loses men success tends
When you haven't had a lot of success up here, it comes down to confidence. He didn't have the same look he did this spring. It just looks like he loses his focus out there, especially with men on base. When things aren't going well, it looks like he tends to back off, instead of attacking the hitters.
feels finger good hand indication looks pitches threw
It looks like his stamina's there and his finger feels good. He threw some good sliders tonight. He used all his pitches and that's an indication that his hand feels fine.
focus looks loses men
It looks like he just loses his focus out there at times, especially with men on base.
action good great ground hard looks sinking throw took
It's hard to throw much better than that, ... He made it look easy. He had great command, good sinking action and was getting ground balls. He made adjustments, and it looks like he took it out there.
adrian advantage excited full looks man taking
Adrian has an opportunity, and he's taking full advantage of it. We're excited to have him, and he's excited to have that opportunity. He looks like a man on a mission.
acquired consistent gotten helped job looks since
He's been consistent and it looks like he's gotten in the groove. He's helped solidify this rotation, and I can't say enough about the job he's done since we acquired him.
advantage ball bat breaking difference hanging looks took
He looks the same. I don't see any difference in his bat speed. He got a hanging breaking ball and took advantage of it.
blow couple guy looks lose miss tremendous
He looks like he's going to miss a couple days. He's the one guy we can't lose on this ballclub. That would be a tremendous blow if we had him go down.
confidence looks
He looks like he belongs. You can see his confidence growing.
determined looks
He looks like a very determined young man.
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.
