careful game hitting hurting intention people seen start
I've never seen Curt Schilling go out and start a game with the intention of hurting people. But if you start hitting people in the head... you need to be very careful of that.

That was as good an at-bat as we've seen taken all year.
guys hand honest number seen wearing
To look around here and see the number of guys wearing a glove on their right hand I've never seen this, honest to goodness.
care choices couple fastball few good life numbers pitches quality seen strike throwing
I don't care what the numbers suggest. I thought the life to his fastball was as good as we've seen all spring. I think there could have been a couple different choices he made in a few two-strike counts, but I'll tell you: He was throwing nothing but quality pitches in the strike zone. ... He was actually too fine.
affect based games last remains seen
It remains to be seen how this will affect us. Based on last night, not at all. But that's one game. We have 37 more games to be played. And it's not just the results, but how we go about it. Do we play with enthusiasm, with intensity, with passion?

acquire draft guy opportunity previous record resume rule seen shows somebody whose year
His record wasn't all that impressive, but I've seen this guy do very well at times. And I think the opportunity to acquire somebody in the Rule 5 draft ... it's not all that often you get somebody whose resume from the previous year shows 141 innings.
asked seen smart
He's a very smart young man. He's done all the things that he's been asked to do on a day-to-day basis. There is, in fact, not anything I've seen from him that I haven't liked.

Pitch the ball, catch it and put it into play, you're going to have to show me that it doesn't work, because I've seen it work. We have the components in this clubhouse to make it work, I really believe that.

Go ahead and take that gun. What was important was the life of the pitch when it's entering the hitting area. That was as good as I've seen him.
aware guy hit home runs seen type
He may not have seen live pitching, but he's the type of guy who wouldn't take long to resurrect his hand-eye coordination. I don't think he hit 700-and-something home runs by accident. I think you would have to be aware of him.
further himself knows locked seen
I don't think he's completely locked in. I've seen him further along. But he's been through this before. He knows how to get himself ready.
absolutely center dynamic highly league major seen stranger time tools
He's not a stranger to the Major League level, ... I've seen him play a dynamic center field. There was a time where his tools were absolutely electric. He was a very highly touted, talked-about player.
