We played some good teams, some good baseball at times. Just didn't get over the hump.

The good thing about the World Baseball Classic is we get to see some kids play that we normally wouldn't.

The baseball gods are showing me a little bit of everything this year. We just seem to make a mistake at the most inappropriate time.
baseball bit boils gods learning positive showing unusual winning
The baseball gods are showing me a little bit of everything this year, and that was one of the more unusual (plays). I'm still positive about these guys. . . . But it just boils down to learning how to play winning baseball.
baseball finish finishes home regardless schedule sets trip
We'll know where we are by the end of this trip and then we'll still have to go home and finish strong. A lot can happen, but the way the schedule sets up, regardless of how this trip finishes up, we still have a lot of baseball to play.

Overall I was pleased with the spring. All the guys who played in the World Baseball Classic came back healthy. We're ready to go.

We could do a lot of different things. It's not fair to speculate right after the game, when you've got time to think what your options are.
advantages depth pitching schedule speed
The schedule is the schedule, but I like my team. If there are any advantages we have (over the other wild-card hopefuls), it is our speed and the depth of our pitching staff.
certain experience good growing guys happen learning sure talked taste
I've talked to my guys about it. All teams, when they go through a growing process, these things happen before you get to a certain level. I told them to make sure they don't like the taste they have in their mouth. It's going to be a good learning experience for them.
stay
It was ugly, ... It's not the way you've got to do things to get back and stay in things.
