exactly instead seeing worrying
This spring, we're seeing him get back to where he was at. He's still made some changes, and he's still not exactly mechanically where he was two years ago. It's a little different, but it works. What I'm seeing, though, is that instead of worrying about mechanics, he's worrying about hitting. He still has a long way to go, like every young player.
almost ball brilliant flipped until waited
It was almost brilliant that he waited until they flipped the ball back,
couple gotten hit knows looking love
He's a professional. I love his thought process. He's already told me a couple of times before going up there what he was looking for. He's gotten it and hit it. He knows what he's doing in every sense.
became changed ways
In a lot of ways they were opposites. But they became very close. I don't think they ever really changed at all.
both cant combining eight fight imagine scratch starting teams
Nothing will come easily. Both teams will have to scratch and claw and fight for every run. I cant imagine two teams combining for eight better starting pitchers.
jobs trying
I like that they're trying to get in new jobs. We need that.
OK, I won't own a restaurant, but I'll go to everyone else's.
brand indiana office opponent time took trade year
It was brand new the year my opponent first took office in the Indiana Statehouse. I think it is time to trade it in.
kid knew miss second time
This kid is really bright. He's very observant, doesn't miss anything. The second time around the league, he already knew most of the pitchers.
ate brought came cigars drank glass kids smoked stayed supposed until waiting watch wife wine
They came over for one glass of wine and stayed until midnight. They drank all my wine, smoked all my cigars and ate all my food. We were all supposed to go out to eat, but I'm still waiting to go. They brought their kids over and made my wife watch them.
feeling himself locked ready season start week
About a week ago he got to feeling like himself again. He's locked in. He's ready to start the season right now.
reminded
It wasn't so much what we told him. We just reminded him of some things that he had done in the past.
sticks
The thing that sticks out to me about him, he's our kind of player. He's a grinder.
anybody good seen spring streak training
Granted, it's (mostly in) spring training ... but he's had about as good a 10-day streak as I've ever seen anybody have.
