feeling might onto playing rush
To put him on the DL right away would be playing it safe, obviously. But it's also important that we don't rush him onto the DL because he is feeling better today. So even if he doesn't play this weekend, he might be able to go on Tuesday.

We wanted to sweep once we took the first two. I get greedy. But it's a long season. We've played for a month, but I don't think we done anything yet. And one more victory wasn't going to change that.

constant definitely speed wait
We'll have to wait and see. We have a long spring. We have a lot of options, a lot of flexibility in our hitters. One thing is constant and that's our aggressiveness and speed and we'll definitely come with that.
