contracts finds ways
He's creative. He finds ways to get contracts done.
He's bounced around too much. It's about his turn.
assignment close couple feels grateful matter needed nobody situations sure wondering
He's been in a couple of these situations recently, and there's nobody that feels more grateful for getting this assignment than he. He's been close a couple times, and I'm sure he was wondering if it was ever going to be reality. But it was a matter of time. It was just inevitable. All he needed was the right mix.
burst far nice ready year
He had a nice year (in the minors) and an even better fall, but as far as him being ready for that (major league) level, I don't want to burst anybody's bubble.

He had some faults, we knew that. But when all was said and done he would treat you as well as he would anyone else, no matter who you were.

He was not comfortable in leaving camp to play. He wanted to make sure that he would be fresh for an entire year.

He did some damage to us. That was the type of scenario where you could envision him doing that for us. No doubt that will be fresh in many people's minds.

He got his feet wet. Everybody's in consideration right now.
changed couple everybody guy hall inside might next remember sad
He never changed, even after he got into the Hall of Fame. He might have changed physically, but inside he was the same guy ... Everybody is going to be sad for the next couple of days, but when you remember him, you're going to smile.

I hear those sarcastic remarks throughout the game. People say that the Twins got a bad batch and all that. I hear that stuff. But who cares? All I care about is winning.
area chance code good hard lefty people strike talk throws wonder
If you look at his numbers, people would say no wonder you talk about him. But the first thing you talk about with him is, No. 1 he's left-handed and No. 2, he throws hard. When you find a lefty who throws hard and can get in the same area code as the strike zone, there is a good chance you are going to talk about him.
sit sudden
If you go out and get an outfielder, and all of a sudden Stewart comes back healthy, then what? ... Do you sit him?
except good losing proud sit
He's prepared. He's done about everything you can do except sit in the (general manager's) chair. I'm proud of him, but we're losing a good man.
