ball couple distract guys hit produce
They're scrappy, ... and they don't try to do too much. They put the ball in play. When guys get on, they hit and run, steal, distract the pitcher. They go out and do everything they can to produce a couple of runs.
air grab guys shipped
It wasn't him just going off and getting in people's faces. He did grab our attention, especially when he said if he has to have another meeting, it's not going to be fun. He said there will be a lot of guys getting shipped out of here, and he's going to air a lot of guys out.
against attack both guy nice quick strike
It's nice to have a quick game. Both of us were in the strike zone. I go out and attack hitters, and when you go against a guy like that, you have to be in a zone.
goes rid win
When we got rid of all that offense, I was thinking, 'There goes all of our power, all of our runs, all of our R.B.I., there goes all that,' ... It was almost, 'How are we going to win any games?'
baseball listen mind nice wildlife woods
I like to get out in the woods as much as I can to get my mind away from baseball and kind of get away from everything. It's nice to get out there and listen to everything, the wildlife and the smells.
five majors mound playoff pressure situations
I really can't say I had playoff experience. Now being in the majors five years consecutively (as a starter), I think just being out there on the mound and being in pressure situations help.
far joking keeping managers office socialize starts stuck team
He's outgoing. He's never in his office, ... Some managers are stuck in their office and don't socialize with everyone else. He's out here joking around, laughing, keeping everyone loose. I think it starts with him, as far as keeping our team loose.
ball base caught heads josh mound paul run threw
First happened, I thought Josh Paul threw the ball to the mound like he caught it. It's a heads up play by A.J. to run to first base like that.
either glad looks seen situation time
Every time I've seen it, it looks like it could go either way. One time, he looks out and one time he looks safe. I'm glad I wasn't put in that situation to make the call.
second
Without him in the second half, I don't know if we'd be here today.
cubs everybody knows recognized room
We're not even recognized in our own city, ... Everybody in this room knows it's a Cubs town.
act ahead league series win work
We didn't really want to make a big deal. We didn't win the World Series. We're just getting in the postseason. We've got a lot of work ahead of us. If we win the World Series or we win the American League Championship, then we can act like that.

games guys might staff team three win year
I think we have at least two guys on this staff that can win 20 games this year with the team we have, the offense. Like I've said before, it does take a lot of luck. There's a lot that has to happen. But I think it's not just two that can win 20 games on this staff. There might be three or more that can do it.
