against games good milwaukee three took worries
What worries me is that we've had three games that are stinkers. We didn't look good against Milwaukee and we didn't look good tonight. They pretty much took it to us tonight.

What worries me is that we've had three games that are pretty much stinkers right here lately,
bat hopefully maybe swinging tender three
I feel like he's swinging the bat well. I don't want to see him out there at the plate, have three at-bats and maybe be a little tender and maybe do something a little different. We'll give him one more day and hopefully he'll be 100 percent.
crucial giving goes months pitch tend three
When you have 7, 8 and 9-inning guys, you tend to pitch them in such crucial points, ... When they give up a run, it usually hurts, but you can't go three months without giving up a run. Wheeler goes big stretches without giving up anything.
chances generate step three tonight took
We need to generate a little more something. Tonight they took it to us. We've got three more chances to do something to them, and we need to step up to do it.
fortunate game ground lose three
We were fortunate to lose two out of three and not lose any ground . . . (Monday) is the most important game we will play this year.
cut everybody slack three throwing
We'd cut him the same slack we do everybody else. You have to give him three outings before you really take a look at him. He's been throwing some, so you'll probably give him two outings here.
among fifth looking pitchers saying seven six starters three until
We have three young starters that we're looking at. That's why I'm saying I feel like we need 12 pitchers. You should not need 12 pitchers in the first six or seven days. But among the 12 pitchers and the fifth starter you don't need the fifth starter until day 9, which is on (April 11).
best good players position terms three
For us, it's the best one out of three right now. It doesn't get any easier. We're in good position in terms of our pitching, our players and everything. But the job's still got to get done.

For us, it's the best one out of three now. It doesn't get any easier.
critical facing four guy hard job key maybe plays sit somebody three tough toughest
He handles everything well, and for a guy who plays maybe once a week, it's tough to do well in a job like that. Pinch-hitting is one of the toughest jobs, you're usually facing somebody tough. It's hard to sit around for three or four days, then try to go up there and get a key at-bat in a critical situation.
afford almost strikes three walk
I like what you see there. And he strikes out almost three times as many as he walks, so he can afford to walk somebody, because he's going to strike you out, too.
saw team three white
I only saw the White Sox play three games. I don't know their team very well,
