devastated
I was devastated I wasn't going to get to play for Tram and Gibby,
bury english loves played teach work yell
He loves Detroit. He played with Detroit. He loves the English 'D.' He's not the kind to yell at you. And he's not going to bury you in a hole. He's going to teach you how, get you to work out of it.
guess
We look dead, ... but I guess we don't feel dead.
accurate arm correct hands heard information rap receive second talked talking
He was talking about my hands and how I should receive the ball. The rap on me is my throwing. He said he is going to make me an accurate thrower to second base. I have the arm strength, but I haven't had the accuracy. We talked about the correct form. It was different information than I ever heard before.
guy hard maybe type
He was awesome. Maybe he used to be more of a hard thrower, a blow-it-by-you type of guy, but he can pitch, man. The way that he is in the clubhouse, you couldn't find a better guy to sign, I don't think.
bad lights since
He was awesome. He's been doing it for us since he got here. I think he had one bad outing, and since then he's been lights out.
came great job man sent
He just hasn't been able to get anything going. He got sent down and he was a man about it. He did his job and he came back. He hasn't been playing, but he's still been a great teammate, hasn't complained about anything.
everybody loves pulling team
With what he's been through this year, everybody was right there with him, and I know everybody on this team loves him and has been pulling for him,
execute hope
We know we have some hope here. We know we have the right guys. We just have to execute and we did that.
behind chance looking quit seize shoulders
We're in this. We've got a chance to be in the playoffs. We've got to quit looking behind our shoulders and seize the opportunity.
miracles
We had two miracles in a week, ... and then this today.
fall fingers pointing vibe
We get down, we can't come back. We give it up, we fall apart. I'm not pointing fingers at anybody. That's just the way it's been, the vibe around here.
great hit season
He's still a great teammate. He hasn't complained about anything. Shoot, that hit makes the whole season for him.
felt goes good hitting quick starting surgery swelling throw until wait
I have to wait until the swelling goes down and the stitches to come out and we'll go from there. I bounced back quick from the other surgery I've had. I feel good. I felt good going into the surgery. Hopefully, in two weeks, I'll be hitting and starting to throw at least.
