guys step
They've had some guys step up and play very, very well for them,
ball based couple goes hole last moved night steps stop talked
We talked about it and moved them over a couple steps last night, but we're going to have to do better than that. You have to make adjustments based on who's pitching. If the ball goes through that hole a couple of times, then why don't we just move over so we can stop it?
bit step
Sometimes you take a little bit of a step back to get where you need to be.
decide seen somebody stepping waiting
No one is stepping up. I haven't seen enough to decide that I want somebody out there. I'm just waiting for somebody to step up.
face good guy hopefully kenny likes lost needs ready rogers sat start step
Kenny Rogers is not the guy he likes to face very often, so we sat him out. But he was ready to play. We've lost a lot of people, and Jacque is one guy who needs to step up.... Hopefully that's a good start for him to get on a roll.
beaten guy needs step
Our outfield's been beaten up pretty bad, and Jacque's the one guy that needs to step up. And he's been doing that.
fun good stepped
He was ready. He stepped into a good situation. It was fun to see.
beaten guy leaders-and-leadership lost needs outfield people step
He's one of our leaders. We lost a lot of people this year. Our outfield has been beaten up pretty bad. And Jacque is the one guy who needs to step up, and he's been doing that.
dugout fun game good loved manage manages playing watching
I loved watching Ozzie manage in the other dugout and he manages just like he played. He had fun playing the game and he manages having fun and that's the way we should all try to do it. I think he set a pretty good tone.
bet forget people sure talking throughout year
I'm sure there'll be a lot of people talking throughout the year about Puck. You can bet that we won't ever forget him.
deal hoping season spring start sure tough
I'm sure hoping it's not going to be like that all year. That would be a tough thing to have to deal with. That's why you take precautions now in Spring Training, so once you start season everyone is healthy.
people sure wrong
I'm sure he'll get votes. If he doesn't get votes, then the wrong people are voting.
along doubt later sure
I'm sure he'll come along and say he can hit. I don't doubt that a bit. If we need him to go out there later in the game, he'll go out there.
ball fans minnesota painful sure twins
I'm sure Minnesota Twins fans are hurting. It's very painful right now. We all know where Puck's going to be: He's going to be up there whacking the ball in Heaven. So we're going to be OK.
