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.
happy last missed
We missed him last year. I know he wasn't happy about not being able to play.
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.
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.
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.
anybody ask besides gets hits home nice plays record run
I like the 4,000 hits. That's the one that gets me. That's a lot of hits. That's the most eye-popping record to me besides the home run record. You ask anybody who plays the game, that's a nice record to have. The most hits ever?
antsy forward looking pace sure wants
I'm looking forward to it. I'm a little antsy right now. I just have to make sure I just keep at the pace everyone wants me to go at and go from there.

Everyone knew he'd come back and pitch well. I'm just happy he's OK.
happiness happy knew pitch
Not the way he was pitching. Everyone knew he'd come back and pitch well. I'm just happy he's OK.
came games happen matter whoever
It was just one of those games. It didn't matter what (Waechter) did. The way they came out, it was going to happen to whoever pitched.
bone bruise definitely fine found four game gotten months patient season six start takes wait wind
Once I found out it was a bone bruise and it takes four to six months to heal, then I was fine with that. It's only been four months, and it's definitely gotten better. ... I just have to be patient and wait for it to heal. I mean, if the season was going to start today, I'd wind up playing. It's not one of those things where I'm going to be out. If we had to play a game today, I'd be ready.
glad hate mostly scared somebody
I'm glad to see him back out there pitching, ... I was mostly scared for his health. He is important to their team. You hate to see somebody go down like that.
