facing gets needed relax team tempo trying
The tempo on my changeup is a little off right now because I was gung-ho being out there and trying to make pitches. I needed to relax a little bit. When you're facing a team other than your own for the first time, your competitiveness gets going a little bit.

last team wagner
Wagner has made us a much better team than we were last year.
deals directions echo followed game hope last major map pleased road team together wagner
I echo those comments. No question, Wagner has made us a much better team than we were last year. There's no guarantee, we still have to play, but we have to be pleased with what we have. We made two major deals and did as much as I think we could have done. It's awesome. I'm excited. They put together a game plan, a road map to success, and we followed the map very well. Now I just hope the directions are up-to-date.
dress fair form gave great grief hard less nowadays played teammates three
We gave him grief about everything. We always got on him about his physique, which is less than intimidating. How he'd dress sometimes. All that stuff. He was fair game. He played the game, and he gave it back. That was part of the great thing there, for the three of us to be able to be teammates as long as we were, to form a great friendship. Nowadays in baseball, that's hard to do.
game ourselves playoff separates teams tonight win
That's what separates playoff teams from non-playoff teams. Too often we find ourselves in a game like we did tonight and we're not able to make the play. We play well enough to keep ourselves in the game but not well enough to win those games.
bit easier enjoy expected focus team win
I think it was a little bit easier to enjoy yourself and just focus more on getting better. If you're on a team that's expected to win you have to produce, and that's a whole lot different situation.

equal race talent team
We can. I've said all along, our talent is equal to that of any team in this race. We just have to do it.
excited happened saw team year
What may have happened in the past, it doesn't matter. This is a different year and a new team that's constructed a different way. Today, you saw what it is that we're excited about.
areas certainly evaluate expected looking stronger talent team teams
If you evaluate our team, we've certainly assembled the talent to win. Looking at some of the teams I was on in Atlanta, I can't say those teams had more talent than this team overall. Some areas are stronger than others. But the thing we always had over there was that we just expected to win.
certainly far gone good shown team
In the years I've been here, sure. We haven't had a team that's been this good. ... We've certainly gone out so far and shown that we're a good team.
ability arm close falls jump running shutting team unless vertical wins
If I have to make the team on my vertical jump, my long jump or my running ability, I don't like my chances. I don't plan, unless my arm falls off, on getting this close to 300 wins and then shutting it down.
bigger closer impact teammates
The closer it is to home, the bigger impact it has. You're a little closer to it and more sympathetic to it when one of your own teammates and friends is impacted.
