I liked what I saw, and I'm happy what he did. He was a little bit wild.

I'm looking forward to him being here tomorrow. It was nice to see not-quite-everyone out there. I don't know why Barry isn't here. I heard 'personal matters' like everyone else.
bigger games smaller
The games are getting smaller (in number) and bigger in importance.

The concern is the knee, and the knee is big-time strong. I expect Barry to come back after the weekend and play.

Alou's got the blood of three families on his hands.

The medical people are around him and are watching him. If he stays solid maybe they'll let me have him.
