eight expect games innings keeps starter
We don't expect him to go eight innings every night. But if he keeps us in games as the No. 5 starter that's going to be big.
eat game good instead meal personally start waiting wake
Personally I think it's better to play in the day than at night. Instead of waiting around all day for the game to start all we have to do is wake up, eat a good meal and then play football.
clicking gotten great job lift offense pitching slow starting
This was a big lift for us. Our starting pitching has done a great job for us. The offense has gotten off to a slow start but once we start clicking offensively, this could be a lot of fun.
consistency expecting matter roger starting stuff
We're not expecting him to be Roger Clemens. The stuff has always been there. It's just a matter of consistency and we're starting to see that now.
against beirut bring changed directed mainly mood people point slap start winds
The mood in Beirut is that this is just a first step, and one that is mainly directed against the Syrians. You bring in people like this for a reason. The point I think is to give them a big slap and say the winds have changed and you had better start talking.
again based call concerned currently forward hard high investors money months nations next nine oil prices pricing production seeing several six speaking start time top trading
Our call was based on the next six to nine months where we think that oil pricing is at the top end of its trading range. And speaking about the production cutbacks that you alluded to, we are concerned that the OPEC nations will start to overproduce once again going forward over the next several months because of how high oil prices currently are, ... And we have a hard time seeing how investors are going to make money going forward from these current levels.
few good last playing start waste
We just have to be better defensively, me included. We've slipped the last few weeks, and we don't want to waste a good start by not playing better in the field.
again bad field great hopefully huge start
I feel bad for Ian. He was off to a great start and is a huge part of our team. Hopefully he can get back on the field again soon.
anytime capable definitely gets huge kevin player seen streak
I've never seen anything like this, this is unbelievable. Anytime a player gets on a streak like this you're surprised. But Kevin is definitely capable of doing this. He's going to have a huge year.
absolutely huge move opening perfect players ready shocked teammate traded
It was a huge shock. I didn't see it coming. I'm absolutely shocked that one of our better players and a perfect teammate was traded before Opening Day. That's part of being in the big leagues. You just move on and be ready for tomorrow.
badly cash companies cuts enormous flow industry last oil point pressure
These cuts point to how badly impaired the profitability of the oil industry has been in the last year. It also show what an enormous cash flow pressure these companies are under.
afternoon bit comment later phones summer tempo
The tempo is off a little bit in this later summer period, ... Someone made a comment this afternoon in the office, 'Gee whiz, the phones are quiet!'
everybody good individual judged label people player seeing throw
People throw that label around without even seeing the player play. It's unfortunate, because nothing good can come of it. I think everybody should be judged on an individual basis.
baseball besides entirely facilities focus games great piece played spring training travel weather whoever
Besides that, the weather is great, the travel is a piece of cake, you can focus entirely on baseball and the facilities are first-class because games are played at Spring Training stadiums. I had a blast. Whoever thought of the AFL, it was a great idea.
