against best chances early good quite seen throw
We had a lot of chances early against a good pitcher, but we just couldn't get anything done. That is the best I have seen (Jose) Contreras throw in quite a while.
advantage best guy saw took top
I don't think we saw Schilling at his best tonight. But we took advantage of it and that's what we have to do when a guy like that is not at the top of his game.
best biggest condition full paranoid pitch possible starting
I'm real paranoid about starting him now and without him being in the best possible condition to pitch a full season. That's my biggest concern. I don't know if he understands that or not.
anybody best goes healthy help hurt lack means might needs next rest season sure winter
In his case, because of the lack of innings, I think it might help him. I don't think it will hurt him. If anybody needs winter ball, it would be him. We want to make sure he's healthy going into the season next year, too, so if that means rest after he goes through all this rehab, that could be the best way to go, too.
seen unusual
I've seen Elmer a lot and that's not unusual for him.
flow game guy
It was the other extreme, but a guy like Santana can do that to you. He can make things look real lethargic. The game just didn't have a flow to it.

I still don't think that he'll pitch for us. I know he wants to but ... he's talking about pitching winter ball and we're going to talk about that, too.
months needed seen three
I've been here three months and I've seen just about everything I needed to see.
five problem
Five in a row, ... The problem with that is you see it better.
maybe might pitch thinking
Right now, we're thinking he might pitch one, maybe two more times,
quite
Quite honestly, I think that is a long shot.
fun guys hit opposed sit watch
Offensively, it was fun to just sit back and watch our guys hit as opposed to scratching out every run.
edge job lived lucky position win
We lived on the edge tonight. We were lucky to be in a position to win the game. We had one big inning but couldn't get the job done.
both figure free game league looked send threw trying whether
Both of them looked like they threw free and easy. Now we're trying to figure out what we're going to do with Bautista -- whether we're going to send him to the Instructional League or whether we're going to have another simulated game for him before the Instructional League.
