expecting rest run slowing walking
I feel great. I was expecting to be out there yesterday, but they just wanted to rest me a little more. I can run when I need to. It's the slowing down part; it's the walking part that hurts.
extended game good great johnson randy scenario tim wish
I feel good about things. Worst-case scenario here, we would've only been one game up, so three's all right. We wish we could've extended it, but Randy Johnson pitched a great game, as did Tim Wakefield.
definitely help knows smart talent week
I feel like it's going to be great. He's a talent and he knows what he's doing. He knows how to communicate and he's a smart player. Getting this week in with him is definitely going to help me out.
happy team
I can't say we're happy about the situation. But we'll be all right. I think we have a good-enough team to win.
perfect road time
We need to play better on the road and this is the perfect time to do it.
feels room win
We're excited. Everyone in the room feels like we can win a championship. If we don't win, it would be a shame.
great healthy opening ready
Obviously, it's great to be with the team. I think we're pretty ready to go. We'll try to get to Opening Day as healthy as we can, and we'll be all right.
definitely great hat middle strikes throw throwing tip
We definitely didn't know much about him. He did a great job. We have to tip our hat to him. He didn't throw anything in the middle part of the plate. He didn't make any mistakes. He was getting in and out. He was throwing strikes up and down.
definitely ourselves
We definitely did not want to see ourselves in that situation. If we don't (win), he's not the only one who's upset.
games problem safe short start winning
It's just a problem for the short term. Long term, I'm good. We'll play it safe and start winning games for the Yankees. We know we have to kind of wait, which kind of stinks.
crazy everybody exhibition game march spring
It's just an exhibition game in spring training. I think by now everybody understands what happened. I'm not going to go crazy over one game in March when we play them 19 times during the year.
deep dig hit seems trying
It seems like it's been forever, man. I'm trying to find it. If it were easy, everyone would hit .320. It's tough, but I have to dig deep and keep battling.
hand job seems
It seems like we're ready. We're focused. We know what job at hand is.
hopefully hot short
It's a short tournament, though, and anything can happen. Hopefully we get hot at the right time.
