four special team together
(The WBC) is going to be every four years, but I don't know if in four years we'll be able to put together a team like we have right now. This is a pretty special group.
I think we could play a lot better than what we played. I think we should have scored at least 12 runs.

It is a sign of what we can do.

Our guys take it very serious and show a lot of pride in this kind of stuff.

Knowing Pedro, he doesn't want to participate just to participate.

We lost our bona fide closer and our No. 1 guy.

He'll probably pitch as much as he would if he was in Spring Training.

We're pretty excited. He's a guy that is really hurting right now because he's not here.
