against approach believe chasing doubt everybody game good people played wants worry
Everybody is chasing us, everybody wants to play good against us. No doubt about it. We have to take the same approach as we have in the past. We have to play the game the way we've always played the game. Don't believe the hype. You have to go there and play the game and not worry about what people think.
doubt
There's no doubt about it, we really flat-out stink.
balance doubt team
There's no doubt about it. This is a team that has got better balance than any other team in the American League.
baseball believing doubting good happy people playing
I'm so happy for these kids. A lot of people started doubting us. Even we started doubting us. But then we started believing again, started playing good baseball again, and I like the way we're playing going into the playoffs.
best detroit doubt face freddy good himself likes next pitch
Freddy likes to compete. The Detroit Tigers, to me are the best lineup in the Central, no doubt about it. (Garcia) likes to get himself to the next level. He likes to pitch in big games. You want to face good hitters? You face the Detroit Tigers.
booing doubts fun games lead obviously people release second takes win
I feel proud. It's not like I'm criticizing the people that were booing because when you go from a 15-game lead to one or two, obviously they do it. But when you win that many games and people keep criticizing and criticizing, second doubts and second guessing, it takes the fun away from the people. To me this is a release and a satisfaction.
biggest built defense doubt good knew reasons team won year
We built this team around defense and pitching. I think our defense was one of the biggest reasons we won the World Series, no doubt about it. I knew we were going to play good defense all year long.
against bay best city couple doubt expect kansas left lose playing saw tampa team took
I took a couple of peeks up there. Nothing against Kansas City or Tampa Bay, but the way they are playing right now and from what I saw when they left here, I doubt they will lose another game. I don't expect Tampa Bay to do it. I think the best team to do it now is us.
amazing arm best came confidence doubt job keeping kid last matter mechanics pitches throwing time year
It's an amazing job this kid did over the last year and a half, ... This kid came in with a lot of problems, mechanics and keeping his pitches down. I always say Contreras got the best arm on my staff. There's not a doubt about it. It was a matter of time when he got more confidence and he was throwing more strikes.
baseball doubt lousy playing team watching
We're playing lousy baseball on the bases, pitching, everything. There's no doubt about it. We really flat-out stink. It's not the same team I've been watching all year.
best doubt games mirror nine pitching runs score staff
When you score nine runs, these are games you have to win, no doubt about it. When your best thing is the pitching staff and you score nine runs for the pitching staff we've had all year, no way we should have lost. We have to look in the mirror and pitch better.
against doubt frank wish
He was my teammate, and he don't do anything to me. Frank is Frank. I wish him the best, there's no doubt about it. I don't have anything against Frank. If I have anything against Frank, I will let him know.
best doubt staff stuff top
He (Contreras) has the best stuff on the staff from top to bottom. No doubt about it.
anyone believing confidence doubts game mind needed puts struggle swing
He needed that more than anyone else for his confidence. This game is about confidence and believing in yourself. You're always going to struggle in this game, and when you swing better and don't get results, it puts doubts in your mind and that kills you.
