bring himself hit homer might run setting table unless wall win
You bring so much more to the table with all those tools. Unless he's really setting himself back, that's part of being a professional athlete. We didn't want him to run through a wall or anything like that, but ... he might hit a three-run homer to win a ballgame.
bring guys later might normally pay season somebody spring
We could look at guys we might normally not see much of in spring training, and this could pay off later in the season if we need to bring somebody up.
anderson baseman bring chance help might ourselves owe saying second sure talented veteran
I'm not saying that if we get a chance to bring in a veteran second baseman who can really help us, we should say, 'No way, we have Anderson Hernandez,' ... He might need another year. But he's young and talented and sure of himself. We owe it to ourselves to take a look.
bring bullets few good save
At the time, I thought it was a good time. I just wanted to save a few bullets if I could ... You've got an 8-0 lead, you should be able to bring in one of your back-end relievers.
bring game lost table
Even if he would have lost or had a so-so game yesterday, he's still going to bring something to the table every time,
bring delivery guy pitch somebody unorthodox
Sometimes you come in with a guy who is unorthodox in a delivery and he'll get you an out. Bring somebody in with a different look and come in with a pitch you don't see everyday.
aggressive bring chance deep factor help table whoever win
One thing we bring to the table is our aggressive speed. That can also be a factor if you play smart. When I make my lineup card, I put whoever I feel has a chance to help us win that day. I try not to get too deep about it.
bringing closer comforting game good legitimate obviously stuff
Obviously bringing in Wagner, a legitimate closer who makes you feel real good at the end of the game when you give him the ball, all of that stuff is really comforting for most managers.
best bring nice option spring
He's having a nice little spring down at Triple-A. Right now, we feel like he's the best option for us. We'll bring him up and get him started.
expect goes
You don't know what to expect when someone goes through something like that,
miss
We're going to miss (Mark) Mulder, ... That's good, I guess, huh?
dictate knows mound needs ready schedules wants whatever
We're going to let Pedro pretty much dictate when he's ready to get on the mound or do whatever he wants to do. We're going to let him take his time. He's a veteran. He knows what he needs to do. We don't need to put any schedules on him because that can always change.
playing until
We're going to keep playing until the end,
bullpen looks
We're going to keep him in the bullpen. I like the way the bullpen looks right now.
