believe chances critics deal division fourth guys last people picked success ultimately
I think everyone picked us fourth in our division last season. You're going to deal with critics and people who have their own opinions, but ultimately it's about the 25 guys in the clubhouse. If we believe we can go out there and win, our chances of going out and having success go way up.
good guy impressed jason johnson last watch
Watch Jason Johnson . That's the guy who really impressed us last season. He's going to be a real good one, real good.
believes division everybody finish forward fourth hard last looking next picked win year
We were picked to finish fourth last year. Everybody in here believes we can compete. You can't win the division by looking forward to the end of the year or the next game. You just have to play hard and concentrate on each game.
experience feeling hard last won
That's why you play, isn't it? I won a world championship last year, and the feeling is incredible. It's hard to describe. You have to go through it and experience it.
exciting good guys last time
It's even more exciting now than it would be if I was still on the team. It's going to be the last time I get to see the guys for a while. This will be a good reunion.

It was one last hurrah with my friends. The hardest part about being traded is you feel like you're leaving your family.

It got me right in the tasty cakes. There's a lot of love there.
ability chemistry everybody pull rope team worry
I think there's not enough made about the chemistry of a team and the ability of everybody to pull on the same end of the rope and worry about what matters, and that's wins.

Jimmy just seems to have a way of not putting extra pressure on himself. He's having fun, and that's a great way to approach the streak.
caught safe
We caught a break. We'll take it any way we can get it. Personally, I like to think of it as retribution, 'cause I thought I was safe at home.
beat earlier games good played relaxed stuff three thrown
We played these three games the way we did earlier in the season. We had so much stuff thrown at us, but once we clinched, we relaxed and beat a very good team.
along brings face frank good guys job
Right now, with Frank being out, he's probably the face of this organization. He does a good job with it and brings guys along for the ride.

I stop watching baseball when football season starts,
builds came confidence definitely group guys next ourselves situations time
I think it builds confidence to know you can came back in situations like this. Next time we find ourselves in that situation, we know we can do it. We definitely have a group of guys who like being around each other. And I think something like this makes us even closer.
