They played better baseball than us. There's no sugarcoating it, ... They deserved to win.
They don't beat themselves. They're pretty good at limiting mistakes. I think they're a test for most teams.
They're all special. It seems like the season hasn't really officially started until we play our home opener.
They're a completely different team (than Tampa Bay).
As of now, as a team and as an organization, we can't think about Rocket. He hasn't made up his mind. Let him decide first. We need to focus on the guys that we have now. We have a great pitching staff.
You're going to win more games with pitching than you are with offense. Our pitching staff seems to have settled in pretty good. They're throwing the ball well.
They do all the little things. I think they're a pest for most teams.
You don't sleep much during the playoffs, anyway. They're going through the same exact thing. It's not like they're taking the Concorde out there.
You can throw everything everybody's done up to now out the window,
Any way you can get it done. We have to find ways to win; it may not be pretty at times, but the bottom line is wins and losses.
Any way you can get it done now. Robbie put down a good bunt to get the runners over. It seems like every at-bat is important at this point in the year.
Apparently the guy sent stuff to a lot of people and made threats, which is serious, ... My letter, what I was sent, it wasn't a threat.
The bottom line is we didn't get it done,
The bottom line is it's never over until the last out. If you've done something before, you always think you can do it again.
