billy bottom came closed great guys job liked line nice picked picking pitchers scratch throw today
The thing I liked about today more than anything was we picked each other up. I really thought the pitchers did a nice job of picking guys up and we had to scratch for some runs, but the bottom line is that Billy came in and closed it on a great throw by Carlos.
bottom chance line looking win
Obviously, when you're looking at it, it's not too pretty. But the bottom line is we still had a chance to win the game.
bottom hard learning line process winning
We're just going through the process of learning how to play winning baseball. The bottom line is that we're learning the hard way.
advantage arm bottom intimidate line strength throwing totally trying
We're not trying to go out and totally intimidate anybody. The bottom line is, we do have arm strength, and that's to your advantage in some ways. The key, really, is throwing strikes.
ball bottom fluidity kept key looked pitcher pound success totally
I thought Zambrano looked a lot looser, there was more fluidity to his pitches, he kept the ball down. The key to success for any pitcher is to pound the bottom of the zone, but with him, especially. He looked totally different.
bottom help hope produce win
It can't hurt. He's been there before, and bottom line, I hope he can produce and help win us some games.
bottom erratic gathering himself line pitches seen
He was effectively erratic I guess. That was probably the most erratic we've seen him in a while. But the bottom line is he made pitches when he had to make them. Sometimes he may get out of sync, but he has a way of gathering himself when he has to.
sure wrong
I'm sure he's going to play in the Cup. Why not? He's fine. There's nothing wrong with him. Nothing serious. So why not?
continuity perfect solid somebody step
In a perfect world, yeah, you'd like somebody to step up. To have that solid lineup is what you like as a manager. You like to have that continuity going through it every day.
good guy knew
I knew he was fine. It was good to see him out there, good to see what the guy can do for us.
pushing
I like him a lot. He's pushing everybody. I like what I see.

certain continuing solid spring style toward training work
It's Spring Training, so you get your work in. But we're still continuing to work toward a certain style of solid play, how we go about our business. I want to see some of that, too. Spring Training isn't just about stats.
