amidst both couple good guys mistakes point
My point was (Saturday) that amidst all the runs, both of the guys did a lot of good things. (Sunday), Wainwright pitched well, but he made a couple mistakes that he got away with.
bought buying pitcher point
That's the kind of pitcher he is. We were buying outs at that point in the game, and he bought them all.
guy hard players playing point step trying
When you're playing this game, at some point the players are going to look at you and say, 'Aren't you trying as hard as we are?' You're the guy who has to step up and say it,
add bad chances excellent game miss point smell
We had excellent chances to add and we missed. That makes the game have a bad smell when you miss a point once or twice.
baseball chance dedicate key moment money point recognize special terrific
You have to recognize that you have a chance to have a special place in baseball history, so you're going about it for more than just the moment or the money or the stats or the attention. I think that will be the key for some of these really terrific young pitchers. You have to be really good, and at some point you have to dedicate yourself to your place in baseball history.
attached cheers fans hard legitimate lose million people picked points says somebody someplace team works
Then there's a consequence because that'll be picked up someplace and it'll get attached to him some and he'll lose some points with legitimate fans and people in uniforms. It's a shame. How about how hard he works every day? How he cheers for his team when he's 0 for four? And all these other million things he does right? Somebody says he lingers at the plate? That's real tired.

It would prove that point that the attention should be on the players and not the managers.

We're going to talk, and we're going to make sure that nothing slips through the cracks. Scott is really important, and we're hoping that what he's done is not too much too soon. That's why it's important we talk.
game pitching
We're going to go game-to-game, series-to-series. We'll see if we think our pitching is vulnerable.
care finish great line mostly october ready rotation soon start trying turns
We're mostly try to get to the finish line first, as soon as possible, then if we can do that, we're going to try to get to October as ready as we can. We're not trying to make a start for Anthony Reyes. We're trying to take care of those two priorities. If it turns out that we want to lengthen out the rotation for some reason, Anthony's a great guy.
correction hal needs sees
We have to get (Juan) going. I think (hitting coach) Hal (McRae) sees the correction that he needs to make.
last player plenty position sure three weeks
We know him and technically a position player can get here the last two or three weeks and that's plenty of camp. I'm sure he's been working.
five four locate roy seen
We've seen Roy four or five times this year. They've seen Mulder four times. It's not really going to be stuff, it's going to be command; you know, do you locate your pitches?
