great notice
He's got great personality. That's the first thing you notice about him. He's a great guy.
absolutely excited love
He's doing absolutely fantastic. He's so excited back there, and I love that.
gets guys
He's good. He gets these guys off their butts. That's what I like about him.
business goes quiet rookie talk talked unless works
He comes in here early, he works out, he goes about his business the right way. He goes about his business the rookie way be quiet and don't talk unless you're talked to.
easier focus kevin ready season
Kevin said that in a way, he was glad. It would make it easier to focus on getting ready for the season in Seattle.
happens heart hell
He did a hell of a job. That's what happens when you have heart and guts.
helped less pick
He helped pick out the stuff. He's been here less than a year, and that's not enough time. So he has to go through it again.
business last unfinished
We have some unfinished business (and) I like to finish what I start. Obviously, the last two years weren't good.
early glad longest seemed
You know what? That was the longest inning I've had in a long time. It seemed like 100 pitches. I'm glad it's early and got it out of the way. Don't want many of those, man.
good needed timing
We needed this one; we all needed it. It was a good meeting. I like it, the timing of it. We need something to get us going.
guys
He's one of those guys who comes around every 20 years.
games types
I didn't do my job. These types of games hurt.
great guys hate job lose nail supposed
After the other guys did the job in relief, I was supposed to nail down the shutout for Felix after a great start. You hate to lose that zero, but we did get the win, and that's what it's all about.
deal felt playing thinking
In thinking about it, I felt I'd be better off not going over and playing in the WBC. I've got a lot to deal with here.
