good handled talked
We talked about a lot of things, things that weren't handled very good and we got it straightened out. It was a good conversation. We'll go about our work.
changed close good pitching playing team
We were playing a very good team here with a changed lineup and I think we battled pretty good in the series. Our pitching is pretty close to where we need it to be. I think we're going to be fine.
baseball bit game good gotten grown known people practice presence sloppy talked year
The story has always been with him that he's a sloppy practice guy, but a good game guy. He's gotten better at his practice now, and a lot of people talked to him about that, working on some drills. He's grown up a little bit and made his presence known this year in camp.
deserves good guy
The way Lew is playing, he deserves to be out there. He's been our igniter lately, the guy that's really been playing. He's doing a lot of good things for us so we have to keep him in there.
game good great loss pitching
Another great pitched game by Johan. Another loss for a good pitching performance.
good range roller saw slow
Very smooth. His range is not as good as it once was, but you saw him charging in on a slow roller and making it look very, very simple.
good start
We feel pretty good when you start writing out a roster. Even with the injuries, it's not bad.
bad clicking consistent good hitters
We have a lot of good hitters in our lineup. We're just not clicking yet. We have one good day and one bad day. We've just got to get a little more consistent as a whole unit.
battling good kept pushed sixth
We had good at-bats from the sixth inning on. We really pushed the issue, kept battling and got a lot of two-out hits.
good swinging
I tell him to keep swinging and good things will happen.
bench driving good healthy wants
That was good enough for me. He wants to play. It's frustrating for him not to play. It was driving him crazy. On the bench in Chicago, he was going nuts. Hopefully, we can get him healthy and keep him on the field.
bats detroit games good kansas period swing
We've got to play a very good Detroit team, and obviously, we didn't swing the bats very well in the first two games (in Kansas City). So, righting the ship, that comes over a long period of time.
bat everybody good leaving needed playing ready spring swinging
We thought we were ready leaving Spring Training. We were playing very good and swinging the bat good and everybody thought they were where they needed to be.
good hope
He's a good ballplayer. When he's healthy, defensively he's all over the field. All we can hope for is he's rusty.
