quickly
We're going to use him as quickly as we can.
decision move player quicker somebody
Right now there's still a lot of soreness in the finger. We have to see what decision we're going to make, if you want to move somebody quicker before the rosters expand, or play with one player less.
goes innings quick reminds throws
He reminds me of Greg Maddux. He goes out, throws 200-plus innings and throws as quick as he can.
atlanta ball behind bit easier enjoy everybody field game knew pitcher played quick
I always wanted to get off the field as quick as I could. It's easier for everybody and it's more fun. I played behind Maddux a little bit (in Atlanta in 1998-99) and you knew that on any pitch, the (hitter) was going to put the ball in play. You enjoy the game a little bit more when you have a pitcher like that.
couple job next quick supposed talk throw tremendous
Right now he does. All I want to see him do is throw strikes. He was supposed to go in for one inning and it was so quick he had another shot. And he did a tremendous job and right now, he's going to be the talk of the next couple of days.
close easy happen human quick reaction
Things happen so quick and so close it's not easy for a human being to make the reaction or see what happened.
bother feels knows tough tried
We tried to get something done. I think he (Contreras) feels comfortable here and I don't think things are going to bother him. Jose is a tough man. He knows what he is doing, especially where he comes from.
games played
We just play, ... We played 162 games with the same attitude.
babe dumb trade
We weren't dumb enough to trade Babe Ruth,
against compete earn last whatever white
We have to compete against the world champions. We never did as a White Sox organization in the last 80 years or whatever it is, we never did anything to earn that respect.
five four guys hopefully maybe pitch rest sit sneak talk
We will sit down and talk and right now we're not in a six-man rotation, ... It's not easy, but it will be a real interesting talk. Maybe the guys want to pitch with five days' rest and not four and we can sneak him in and hopefully he can pitch the way he is.
bases game hitters loaded won
We had the bases loaded and we should have won the game right there. The hitters got to be better in the stretch. It's not going to be easy.
baseball everybody fans happy last white
We showed White Sox fans and everybody in baseball that we weren't happy with just what we did last year.
last spoiled
We got spoiled last year, the way they (threw). They will get better.
