baseball bit gods mistake seem showing
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.
against bats expect finish funk rest seemed strong swing watching
It seemed like all we were watching was Cy Young work. Obviously, we didn't swing the bats too well against him, so you can't expect to win like that. We've got to see if we can get something going, get out of this little funk we're in and finish up strong the rest of the trip.
close happens lose mistake seem
We seem to make a mistake at the most inopportune times, ... and that's what happens when you lose close games.
enjoying head job seems solid sure
I can't really get into his head and know how he feels, but I'm sure he's enjoying this opportunity. He's been doing the job for us. He seems like a pretty solid kid.
against bats expect obviously seems swing watching
It seems like what we were watching was Cy Young work. And obviously we didn't swing the bats too well against him. You can't expect to win like that.
gets seems time
It's unfortunate that every time he seems to get going he gets injured. It's frustrating because we can't keep him in the lineup.
beat good pitches seemed total
He seemed to make good pitches when he had to. He seemed like he was not really on his total game, but he was good enough to beat us.
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.
billy breaking building protect
I'm legit now. I won't be breaking Billy Martin's or Earl Weaver's records, but that's been building up for a long time. I don't want to get a reputation, but I want to protect my players.

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.
