reason
I think that's the only reason we're at where we're at today.
amazing
He's doing something amazing out there this year,
causes evident game good guys intent offense start
This was only the first game, but this game it was evident that once you get guys on base, it causes havoc. It's not just me, it's anybody. That's my intent to start off the game, not necessarily with a triple, but to have a good at-bat and let the offense take it from there.
counting deal hang hanging head suck sure teammates
I know my teammates are counting on me. I know what I can do for this club, ... You got to suck it up and deal with it. I'm not going to hang my head about it. I sure don't want to let any of my teammates see me hanging my head.
explain fall looked seen time tough wheels
I haven't seen anything like it. I can't even explain it. It looked like we had everything in hand. To see the wheels fall off, it's a tough one to swallow, especially at this time of year.
bad base baseball expect shows speed three
I haven't been getting on base as much as I'd like to be. This shows that speed can play a part. You don't expect three bad pickoff throws. You see something new in baseball every day.
chicago heat love root sports talk
I'm torn. I can't really talk too much out here because I'm in Chicago and they love their sports so I have to root for the Heat silently.
definition gets tremendous
He's the definition of pitching. He's not overpowering, he doesn't have this tremendous stuff. He gets it done every day.
hopefully win
Hopefully it'll be a different story here this year. It's important to win here.
believe couple fun great guys healthy help hopefully last main stay stayed team
Hopefully I help out a little bit, but I think the main thing the last couple years is they just didn't stay healthy. I believe if they stayed healthy, they already had a great team before me. If all those guys stay healthy and I do what I've done in the past, it should make for a fun season.
bases couple raw speed steal
He probably could get away with it for a couple of years, just being that fast. He is still young. The more he plays, the better he will get at it. He could probably just go out there with his raw speed right now and steal 30, 40 bases without even trying.
superstar
If he was 30 years old, I would still be impressed. He will be a superstar in the league.
bring consistent everybody five game kids knows matter sees superstar tools
If he was 30 years old, I would still be impressed. He's just one of those kids who has that instinct. Everybody sees it and knows he is going to be special. It's just a matter of him being consistent and being able to bring those five tools to the game every night. And he can. He will be a superstar in the league.
crowd easy giving hard wind
I know the crowd was giving Dunn a hard time, but I was in the outfield, and it's not that easy out there. That wind was bad, and it was pretty tough.
