If the Cardinals have me back, would I love to come back? Most definitely. But that's a long way away.
I always said I see myself as what the team wants me to be. I've hit everywhere. I've done it all.
He worked a lot more away than normal. Then, he spotted inside later. And his fastball had better velocity.
When he hit that ball, I didn't react. I didn't react, because I didn't know what to do. I couldn't believe he just did that. So I froze. I just froze.
When I come back, I want to be able to help this ballclub, ... Not just be a body on the field. So I've still got to run the bases (in practice), and I've still got to do a couple more things.
We're just trying to go out there and focus on everything we do and hopefully that equates to a win. I'm happy with the way everybody's grinding.
We're playing a tough team. As you can see, they fought to the last out.
I think you truly don't know how it is until you actually get in the game, ... Then you can alter from that. Going in, getting work every day, taking flyballs, running, hitting, whatever, that's not a game situation. ... When it's game time, you've got to go out there and do what you need to do.
I think it is the cutting (with his weakened ankle),
My objective is to see pitches, to see the ball coming out of his hand.
Lima has always been Lima. He tries to get you caught up in his world, ... He did tonight.
He's playing like an everyday player. He's stepping up big. We all know he could have played every day with another ballclub.
Hal and I really just sat back and started thinking about things, and the way that I need to go about seeing pitches and getting in the right frame of mind, ... I've just been working hard every day to get where I needed to be.
It felt like I had never played baseball before and I was glad to get that one out of the way, ... was real nice.
