along answer candidate creates health obviously opportunity options time
Is he a candidate to have an opportunity to make the club? I don't know the answer to that. We'll take it a day at a time and see how he progresses from a health standpoint. If he comes along quicker, that obviously creates more options for us.
obviously tendencies
Most of us still obviously know tendencies of their guys.
large last mean next obviously sample six size team won year
One-and-7 obviously isn't the way you want to start. But the (Dodgers) team I managed last year started 12-2 and we won 71 games. So it's not a large enough sample size of games. It doesn't mean this is the kind of team we're going to be for the next six months.
angeles came difference far los obviously opinion paul players point
We obviously came to a point in Los Angeles where there was a difference of opinion between Paul and I as far as how players are evaluated.
basically obviously swing
Derek Lowe was obviously the show today. One chopped, two-strike swing from a no-hitter. That's basically what it boiled down to today.
change course games landscape next obviously sitting
We still have some games to play in 2005. The landscape could obviously change one day to the next over the course of the winter. I really don't feel like sitting here and expounding on what I think it's going to look like.
games hits majority obviously
Those hits in games like this are obviously huge. We did very little offensively for the majority of the night.
against calling catch club fifth mistake obviously
You can't make a mistake against that club like we did in the fifth inning. I don't know who was calling (for the ball), but obviously you need to catch that ball.
capitalize diego games happened lose number obviously remaining row san stranger win
Stranger things have happened in this game. But obviously we have to win a number of our remaining games and obviously we need some help. San Diego has to lose some games in a row and we have to capitalize on that.
exactly finding next obviously opinion point second speculate waiting
Once we get to the point of a second opinion and finding out exactly where that's going to take us, that's obviously the next thing that we're waiting for. In the interim, there's no need to speculate on anything about it.
add doubt ends fact few obviously people rear washington
I think it'll put a few more rear ends in the seats. The fact Washington is still very much in it will add to the intrigue. Obviously people go out to see him, no doubt about that.
game obviously tested tough
That's a tough game to lose, and obviously we're being tested early.
against best game
We were pitched to death. It's the best game that's been pitched against us all year.
behind mound plate realizing ryan success takes vitally
What takes place between the pitcher's mound and behind the plate is vitally important to the success of a major-league team. I think Ryan is realizing that more every day.
