aaron balanced stronger
We are stronger and more balanced with Aaron there. Aaron makes the whole nucleus that much better.
ball blessing break played plenty resting sets spring strong time training winter
I don't think its sets him back. He played winter ball so he had enough throwing. It could be a blessing in disguise. If you take a little break before spring training he could be strong after resting up. He'll have plenty of time to get ready.
above below finish good nice nicer season strong
It's nice to finish strong and end the season on a good note. It's nicer to be above .500 than below it. But .500 is mediocre. We want to be better than that.
last nice saw stronger sustain together
It's nice to be able to go through that together because we saw that we were able to play, to sustain and get through it. We were OK. We're a lot stronger than we were last year.
best early good hitters longer strong trend wait
Everyone is strong early in the season. I think it's best to wait a little longer and see if the trend sticks. I just think some good hitters are off to some good starts.
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.
gotten hands hits strong throws
He's gotten some big hits for us. He's strong and he's got those big, strong hands and if he throws them on you he can make something happen.
physically strong throw
He has to feel real strong physically and throw a little bit. You don't want to play around with a hamstring.
likeable straw strong
He has that magnetism. He's a big man, a strong man, a likeable man. He's the Straw Man.
bat swinging
We've been swinging the bat well all year. Everyone contributes to that.
couple good leaving pitchers ran shut
We just ran into a couple of good pitchers and they shut us down after leaving Arizona.
gave regular routine stay
We just gave a heads-up that's a possibility. He'll stay on a regular routine for now and then we'll see.
games might win
We might win 15 games in a row.
fair options speculate time
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.
