everybody games good knew looks lose sure
Everybody was sure we would do it, but I knew better. There was no way we would lose 100 games two years in a row! 63-99 looks real good right now!
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.
character fits good guys looking player understand
From what I understand he pretty much fits the kind of player we're looking for -- good character and he's talented, and we can use as many of those kind of guys as we can get,
care good himself love taking
Obviously, he's taking care of himself a lot better than he used to. I just love the way he competes, and I love the way he cares. He's a good teammate. That's what I like.
changes good high letting week
My expectations aren't real high for the first week to 10 days. We're just letting them get used to changes we've made. We did some good things.
forget good
We've just got to forget about that and play as good as we can, as long as we can.
feeling gives good reason spring time woody
The reason is it gives us a little more time to use Woody out of the bullpen. We have a really good feeling of what Woody gives us. He pitched very well in Spring Training.
bullpen good guys three
The good thing about our bullpen is our three guys can all close, with no problem.
call good happen hitting huge
It's all about pitching. If you get good pitching, you have a chance, and they've got some hitting over there, too. It doesn't happen overnight, but it's not what you would call a huge surprise. I could see it progressing.
good
It was bad. We didn't play very good (in) any phase, offensively, defensively, pitching.
glad good
They were really good and we were really bad. I'm glad we got that one out of the way early.
earlier good less might problem spring threw
It might be earlier than that. He threw good and had no problem with his knees. Now he's more or less going through Spring Training.
catch extremely good guys hot pitch reason
We didn't catch these guys at a real good time. You know what? We didn't pitch very well, and a big, big reason for that is they've got some guys who are extremely hot right now.
bullpen deciding good sure
Denny has never pitched out of the bullpen. We weren't sure what we were going to get out of the bullpen from Denny. We have a pretty good idea of what we're going to get from Woody. That probably was the deciding factor.
