I think he's just missing the ball a little bit right now. He's close to whacking it a little bit. I don't worry about him, he's a veteran and he knows how to hit. He'll get his hits.
balls close knows missing worry
I think he's been just missing some balls. I can show you struggling, if you want to see some highlights. He's really close to whacking it pretty good. I don't worry about him. He's a veteran. He knows how to hit.
best given people player stew worry
We know what Stew can do, what kind of player he is. We don't have to worry about that. ... We've got people we've got to get a look at, too. He's given us the best he can.
push starting worry
We have time, but if we push it another week, it's going to be iffy. I'm starting to worry a little bit.
coming people sitting start stuff thinking trap worrying
I'm not sitting around thinking about it as much as I used to. I used to booby trap everything. You start worrying about that stuff coming back at you. I'm a little calmer because there are different people here.
division gotten people tried
We tried to tell people in the off-season that this division had gotten better and would be very tough.
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?
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.

We just really have to wait and see. On that schedule right there, getting in three games and if he feels comfortable throwing all three of his pitches, then he's probably going to be ready. But we're a little worried about this.
ball catching chance clubs hardest might pitching talked winning work
We just talked about being a winning team, and what we're all about here. Pitching and catching the ball is what we do best. It's what we work hardest at. We have a chance to win. We can say that where a lot of other clubs can't. Well, they might say it. But they can't say it like we can.
We just got here, give it a day.
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.
maybe missed opportunity runs score
We missed an opportunity to score runs for Santana and maybe get him a win. Which is probably the most disappointing thing for the night.
baseball facing game great guys lay team won
We won one game here. We didn't quit, we didn't lay down. We just didn't play great baseball here. The guys are trying. You're facing a team that's hungry.
