chance change count felt last looks nice quality ran six sort starters time
He's a good, quality guy, and we have to get him back to when he was at his best, which looks like when he was with Montreal. It's nice to have that sort of quality you can count on. Every time we ran out one of our six starters last year, we felt like we had a chance to win. There's no change at all with this group.

Good pitchers, after a tough outing, bounce back. Real good pitchers don't let too many poor games get in there.

Your competition is EVERYTHING else your prospect could conceivably spend their money on.

Selling more of what you sell has nothing to do with what you sell. It has everything to do with your prospect's wants, needs, fears, goals, values and priorities.
