I like the feel of our team, man. All the guys have just fit in great and are great guys. I'm excited, I really am. With our pitching and mix of guys we have, I think we're in good shape.
deep game spring training
I'm like, did I just see that? ... I jumped up and said, 'Great job! But don't ever do that again!' Deep down, I was going, 'Man, that's impressive. A spring training game and this guy's going all out.'
finishing guys playing preached
I've preached to a lot of guys in here about playing and finishing strong. Sure, it's a little frustrating for myself to not be able to finish.

against anytime beat division great played playing teams win
Obviously, anytime you get beat and go 0-9 against teams in your own division, sure, those things hurt. We just haven't played that well. Do we still play them 16 more times each? Yeah.

baseball degrees enjoying fun nobody playing shows suck team tough types
Nobody was enjoying those types of conditions. It's just not fun playing baseball when it's 100 degrees out. It's just miserable. You have to suck it up. It shows what your team is made of when you play in tough conditions. Our team has a lot of character.

I preached to a lot of guys in here about playing and finishing strong. It's frustrating for myself to not be able to finish, but I know it's an injury I've had for quite a bit of the season and have played through it. It got to the point where I couldn't do it anymore. I couldn't.
ask defense gold hit involved keeping pitchers winning
The only thing that's keeping him from winning a Gold Glove is he doesn't hit .300. Ask the pitchers how important defense is to them. Shortstop is such an important position. There's so many different plays. They're involved in everything.
