definitely difference
Without our 1-2 guys, that definitely makes a difference in our lineup.
business decision definitely less playing team travel
That would be a little hard, having a team in your own division, playing them 19 times. But that's a business decision for them to make. It definitely makes less travel for us, but we'd be playing a team in our division.
balls bats definitely few good hit night runs seven shut swing tail three
Three runs in seven innings, that's pretty good pitching, really. He pitched his tail off. Hernandez just pitched better. We didn't swing the bats well tonight. We hit a few balls hard. He definitely shut us down. It was a disappointing night for us.
banging definitely guys middle runs start
We definitely need those guys to hit, that's the middle of the lineup. We need our middle guys to start banging the runs around.
definitely guys looking maybe month season start
But if guys aren't even close, you've got to start looking at maybe making changes. You definitely like to give them at least a month into the season and see where we're at.
definitely doubtful maybe today
It's definitely not a pull, but it's sore, so we'll see where we're at with him. It's doubtful we'll use him today but maybe after the day off.
definitely feels good
It's just going to be if he feels good enough to do those things. We like to run. He'll definitely have the chances.
bit consistent definitely growing happened last learn solid tries
If he sits back and tries to learn something from what happened last year, then he can definitely get going and have a little bit more of a solid year. Just being a little more consistent that would be better for everybody. But that's just a part of growing up.
anybody ball catch definitely effort fingers hit month pitch pointing team total ways work year
This is only the first month of the year here and we have a long ways to go, but we definitely have a lot of work to do. We have to pitch better; we have to hit better, and catch the ball better -- the whole package. That's why there can't be anybody pointing fingers in here, because it's a total package. We need an effort by the whole team to get better.
hits
When you have 13 hits and you've got no runs, there's not many explanations for it,
kept
We kept playing. That's what this game's all about.
damage good help player
We think we've got a pretty good player here that is going to help us do some damage this year.
clubhouse flow good help nice people seems talented wait
We think we have some pretty talented people that can help us do the things we need to do, and they've been good out in the clubhouse up to this point. We'll wait and see. It's going to be a long year, but up to this point, it seems like there's a nice flow going.
bring talk
Why do you bring up his name? He's on that side. I don't want to talk about J.C.
