Just knowing him for a brief period of time I feel like he's going to go out there and give it 110 percent. We're not talking about a Gold Glove or anything like that, just go out there and do the best you possibly can.
Just knowing him for a brief period of time, I feel like he's going to go out there and give it 110% and he's going to put the effort in to get better on a daily basis. He's not going to go out there and just put time in.
This young man is special. He was learning about catching with no hesitation on his part. He's really come a long way in a short period of time. And then to have to tell him this, it was very difficult. But we need pitching more than anything else right now.
Zach Day has good enough stuff to win at this level. He's shown flashes, but he hasn't put it together over a long period of time.
Hopefully, he'll get three at-bats in a shorter period of time hitting at the top of the lineup.
I don't see him being back from this in the short period of time that's left. It's too bad.
When a guy is maybe on the lower end of the pain threshold, we have a tendency to maybe be a little critical of him and say what he should do and what he should be able to do. All I know is an individual knows himself and he knows what he is able to handle as far as pain is concerned.
We have to do whatever it takes right now, ... That's our rallying cry: whatever it takes. We have to put it together now. We can't win one, lose one, win one, lose two.
We had the ballgames. They were our ballgames to win, and we didn't finish them off.

We chose not to give him an MRI. The physicals should include everything.
We certainly know we're going to lose him for the next two to three weeks, that's for sure. And with that type of absence from spring training, there's no way he can open the season.
It would be water under the bridge as far as I'm concerned.
It was the situation, and I understood. Still, to get into December without a contract, it gets a little worrisome.
