determine exams fort happened hold hopefully length move second time
Preliminary exams say the same thing. We'll let (Dr. Andrews) determine that and then go from there. It's big. The second time it's happened to him. You've got to move on. We've just got to hold down the fort and hopefully he's not out for any length of time.
believe couple hoped win
To be honest, I would've hoped that he'd win 10 games. I've got to believe he'll get a couple more.
begin confident game goes great hope kid knocked matter played
I would hope not. He's a confident kid to begin with, you can tell by the way he goes about his business, the way he acts. There has never been a great one that played this game that didn't get knocked on their butt. It's just a matter of if you get back up or not.
best gets guys hope ideally played sake
Ideally he gets through. But for his sake you hope he gets claimed. Guys who played for you in the past, you always want the best for those guys.
chance hopefully pitches stay
That'll be his debut. But hopefully he pitches well and has a chance to stay here a while.
debut everybody fun hope luck saw wished yesterday
It's a big day for him. I saw him yesterday and wished him luck and told him to have fun out there. You only get that debut one time. He'll be nervous. He'll be scared. Everybody is -- and you hope he is. That's natural.
alex best guys hope looking plenty seen stunt
Alex made some adjustments to his stance. I just see him better than I've ever seen him. He's more aggressive. He's not getting overpowered at the plate. I see him as one of those guys getting better and better. This is going to make it tougher, because he's not out there every day. You hope it doesn't stunt his growth. Right now you're looking at it as what's best for the team. He'll get plenty of action.
few guys hope side talked today
I talked to him today about a few things and I hope he got the message. You see guys on the other side like (Derek) Jeter and (Gary) Sheffield get down the line.
hopefully miles per throwing
He's going to be really excited, probably throwing 100. Hopefully it's 100 strikes. He'll probably be throwing 100 miles per hour.
good hope
I hope he's not as good as they say.
expecting hope period
All we can do is hope he's not out a long period of time. It's unfortunate because we're expecting a lot out of him this year.
offence
We've been swinging. We like the way our offence is built.
bats offense swinging
We've been swinging the bats pretty well. I really like how our offense is built.
break facing
We just want to break it up for them a little bit. Get them out there facing some competition. It revs things up a little bit.
