age carried hate himself infectious life passion prime seeing seemingly
He carried himself with a lot of passion, and he had an infectious personality, so he's going to be missed. You hate seeing something like that, obviously, at such a young age and seemingly in the prime of his life .
capable certainly chances continues excited good great job teammates week
He continues to show why so many people, teammates included, are excited about what he's capable of doing. He's a great player. Certainly he's had chances the first week to come up in big spots, and done a good job of producing.
afternoon awful felt
It felt like at least 12 innings. Really, it felt like we put an awful lot into one afternoon at the park.
leave players system
I think most players are of the mind-set, if you leave our system alone, it's going to work, and it has worked,
afford behind bullpen carries coming defense figure great guys run score
When you're going out there as a pitcher, there are some times where you feel like you can't afford to give up a run or two runs. That carries a lot of pressure. With the way we're set up right now, you don't figure that to be the case. You figure that these guys are going to score some runs, they're going to play defense and we know we've got a great bullpen coming in behind us.
obviously people start
We have a lot of expectations for ourselves, and obviously a lot of people have expectations of us. I can't think of a better way to start the year.
last team wagner
Wagner has made us a much better team than we were last year.
eliminate happy
I wasn't happy about it. But to say something like that would eliminate me from ever considering (the Braves), no. It's not about me and him. It's about me and my family. That's the more important issue.
goofball met side talking
When I first met him and got to talking with him, the goofball side comes out,
doubt possibly wipe
We need to wipe away as much doubt about this as we possibly can. Anything we can do to take away people's suspicions, we need to do that.
both game pitching run threw tight
You know it's going to be a tight game and one run can be the difference. . . . Both of us threw well, but Timmy threw a little better. I like the way I'm pitching right now . . . but you don't like losing, especially a game like this.
Julio is old. ... old and decrepit. But he can hit. And that's why he's here.
bit complex happening happens seems starting time
I'm starting to get a little bit of a complex about it, yeah. It's the kind of thing that it happens from time to time, but it seems like it's happening a lot to me for some reason.
capable feeling good league monster putting
I think there was always a feeling that offensively, he was capable of putting up monster numbers. He's always put up pretty good numbers, but I think there was always a sense with him that there was more to come. To me, he's probably the MVP of the league right now.
