goes guy importance time
Obviously, we know the importance C.C. has to this team, so any time a guy like that goes down there is some concern. But you feel for him as a person more than anything.
dad game good people sounds time win
My dad used to say all the time to go out and win this inning. It's one pitch, one inning, one game at a time. It sounds ridiculous, but people who are good at doing it have more success.
messages send time white year
You don't send any messages this time of year (to the White Sox).
bad bit game good humbling lately time
This game humbles you all the time in good and bad ways. It's been humbling a little bit lately in a bad way, and this is just the same. It's humbling.
accustomed came consider expect fully good member perform personally positive season time year
It was a disappointing year for me personally because I didn't perform at any time during the season the way I'm accustomed to performing. But on the positive side, when you consider where I came from, I still rallied out of it to be a contributing member on a good team. This year, being fully healthy, I expect to make more of an impact.

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.
exciting feeling level matter moment normal opening playing wait wake
Opening day, you can't wait for it to get here and then you can't wait to get it over with so you can get into your normal routine. It's an exciting day in America. No matter what level you're playing baseball, even back in Little League, there's an exciting feeling about opening day from the moment you wake up.
almost cliff deep games gave starters strong tonight
Our starters go deep into games so often that you almost take it for granted. Cliff gave us another strong one tonight after Scotty (Elarton) had one (Monday).
broke point reading
I thought it was broke all the way up to the point they were reading the X-rays.
might
I thought it was kind of cool. Might as well do it up right.
call might work
I might make a call or two, ... but we need to do our work or it doesn't matter.
bowl fireworks music super
Kind of like the Super Bowl before the game. All the fireworks and the music blasting.
awesome lost pickup remember together trade
I think it got a little lost in the Coco Crisp trade, but if Mota is healthy, that's an awesome pickup for us. I remember when he and (Eric) Gagne were together in the Dodgers' bullpen. They were electric.
