against approach certain chance couple guys looking might numbers teams
The first day we got down here, I said, 'The numbers are against you, but you still need to approach it like you're going out there to try and make this team.' I just want him to have fun. I don't know what teams are looking (for a catcher). Certain teams, if we try to get him through (waivers), there's teams that may want to go with the young guys and might take a chance on him. It's unfortunate he had those couple years where he was injured.
chance couple everywhere last umpires
All the umpires are going to do that. If you get a chance to get the last couple outs, they're going to try to get it in. Everywhere I've ever been they'll do that.
