obviously
He's pitched so well. We're frustrated. He's obviously pitched a lot better than his record.
control mistakes
He's a control guy, a change-speed guy. He didn't make any mistakes on the big part of the plate. He pitched his game.
call might work
I might make a call or two, ... but we need to do our work or it doesn't matter.
capable certainly confident fact feels felt good last respect takes team win
I think we respect the fact of what it takes to win the World Series. I certainly respect that. I felt like they were a really good team last year, so we respect who we're playing. But I also think that everyone in here feels pretty confident about what we're capable of doing.
absolutely cliff conscious dugout effort fun guys knack pride takes winning year
Absolutely there are guys who have a knack for winning games. Cliff is one of them, and it's very underrated. All year long, if we have a big inning, he makes a conscious effort to get us back in the dugout fast. He takes a lot of pride in that. He's fun to play behind.

We were so close, ... and we realize how tough it is to get so close. It ain't easy to do what we did.
advanced excited fun good players watch
We have young studs, ... They are not only really good players but advanced and good people. They know how to act. It's fun to watch these guys. I'm just excited to be a part of it.
team reality years
We hope we're better. The reality is we had a pretty darn good team last year. But you can't just throw your gloves out there and be good again. We want to take that next step as a team.
home thinking play
I don't know why we play better on the road. I really don't. Chalk it up to coincidence, I guess. I don't think we care where we play, which is a good thing. But you'd like to see our home record be a little better than it is.

We're in a great position. We've put ourselves in good position.
