fresh good hard job last remember vibes
You feel so many good vibes around here now. It's so fresh that it's hard to believe, but they are doing a good job getting the vibe out of last year. By the end of the year, we won't remember those old days.
happy last missed
We missed him last year. I know he wasn't happy about not being able to play.
game hit home last needs runs trying whatever within year
Last year I was trying to hit home runs too much. This year I'm going to play within the game. Whatever the game needs for us to win, that's what I'm going to do.
definitely easier guys intense last relaxed seem
We're not exaggerating at all, it's definitely a different feeling. It's a little more comfortable. Things were more intense last year. Guys seem more comfortable about what they're doing on a day-to-day basis. It's a more relaxed atmosphere. It makes things easier to operate.
against last swung though today tracking
Today was the last day I was tracking against live pitching. Even though I don't think I would have swung anyway.
battle came hard last normally until wanting
I just came out wanting to battle and do what I normally do and play hard until the last inning.
coming field good last learning love point stuff
It's been good. That's the thing we didn't have last year, the little fundamentals and stuff like that. I feel like it's to the point where I love coming to the field every day because I'm learning something new. And that's a good feeling.
testing
We would do start-up testing in 2014 or 2015.
almost best brings definitely playing
Those two (teams) will always be the measuring stick. I like playing on the road, period, and being around the big-time atmosphere. It definitely brings out the best in you. Something about it is almost electric.
fun
Everything is still positive. Everybody's still having fun.
groove positive season seems start time
Everything seems so positive around here. You want to see where this new positive way will take us. It's time to get back in the groove so we can start this season off with a bang.
ask funny
Baseball's funny like that. Don't ask me how something like that happens.
calling count funny guys nfl order pitch ready spot study technology watch
We watch so much film, calling up pitch by pitch, count by count in order to spot tendencies. Technology is a big part of how I get ready for a game. What's funny is a lot of the NFL guys say they study the 'Madden' game; that's how they learn to read offenses and defenses.
beyond life talk talks
We talk way beyond baseball. When it comes to life experiences, I go to him for that. When it comes to baseball, he talks to me. We kind of swap information.
