behind everybody hit pitches start tough turn
It was tough day. I didn't make my pitches and when I did they hit them. It's been a tough start for everybody but we have to put it behind us and turn it around.
bullpen easy everybody fun joker knows learning pitch practical walking
Everybody knows him as pretty easy going and a practical joker when he was a player. I think it will be a little more fun in the bullpen area. It's going to be about learning how to pitch and having fun while you're doing it, not so much walking on eggshells down there.
chance coach coming pitching reasons three tough weeks
There's more reasons not to play for me personally. We have a new pitching coach coming in, and it would be tough for me to take two or three weeks off away from it. I'd like to have a chance to get to know him and him get to know me.
advantage ball coming fifth obviously pitches threw took zone
Obviously coming out in the fifth inning is not what you want. I threw the ball alright. i got some pitches up in the zone and they took advantage of it.
definitely knows pitch takes talking
It's definitely not his fault. He's been really approachable for the young guys. He knows what it takes to pitch at this level. He knows what he's talking about.
last lessen main opening pitch whether work
I want to lessen his workload this year, whether it's pitch opening day or work after him, so he doesn't have to do what he did last year. That's the main goal.
pitch rough
It'll come around. We're just going through a little rough stretch. We know we can pitch better than we have.
excited grew pitching rooting
I'm excited about being here in an organization that I grew up rooting for... I'm excited about being an Atlanta Brave and pitching in Game 1.
fall figured gold pitching ring smart start turns wife work
I figured my wife was about to start law school. If that whole baseball pitching thing didn't work out, I had something to fall back on. I figure I'd put a ring on her finger. Turns out she was the smart one. Turns out she was the gold digger, not me.
cooler eighth gotten guys likes manager matter people pitching preached seventh stud swing
You feel like a stud out there when people swing and miss. As I've gotten older, I've preached to our young guys that strikeouts are sexy, but outs are outs, man, no matter how you get them. It's a lot cooler for me pitching in the seventh or eighth inning than it is going 5 1/3. Your manager likes it a lot more, too.
baseball games good great guy hit pitch
That's how baseball is, ... It's one of those games where I didn't pitch good enough and we didn't hit good enough. The young guy over there did a great job.
believe listening might pitching takes
After the first game, listening to all the commentators, we might as well have packed things up. . . . I like our guys, too. We believe if our pitching takes off, we're going to be tough.
baseball box confidence pitching stumbling
I think it's just stumbling out of the box from a pitching standpoint. We just have to get some confidence back. It's just executing, that's about it.
coach pitching
He should be a combination of a pitching coach, psychologist and friend.
