cool definitely handle throw whatever
He can definitely handle whatever they throw at him. Johnny's a cool cat.
bad bases downhill fastball game good hit threw
Got bases loaded, Dmitri Young hit a fastball that made it 6-4. Everything was pretty much downhill from there, man. They hit some good pitches, I threw some bad pitches. Bad game overall. Period.
certain guessing past pattern putting signs thinking
If he's putting signs down, I know he's thinking in a certain pattern from what I've done in the past with him, and so it's not a guessing game.
coin pitch pitching
If I have to pitch out of the 'pen, I'll pitch out of the 'pen. The way I'm pitching right now, if it comes down to a coin flip, I'm going to lose.
definitely expecting hope means noticed people quality satisfy
I definitely noticed it. It just means that people are expecting big things from me. I hope I can come here and satisfy that need for us to have some quality pitching.
ball best couple glad guy last
That's the guy we want with the ball right now. Wake's been our best guy the last couple months. I'm glad he's on the hill.
expected last picking pirates run win
It's a little different vibe. Being in Boston, you're expected to win every night. Here, they're picking us to run neck-and-neck with the Pirates in last place.
baseball benefit love loved red
It was disappointing. I love being a baseball player. I love the city. I loved being a Red Sox. But it's a business. They do what they do to benefit the team.
feed kinda
It's fun, we kinda feed off each other,
above almost beyond friendly funny people
It's funny, ... it's almost like Theo is such a friendly guy, so much like on of his peers, I think he went above and beyond so people (thought) he wasn't 'one of the guys.'
bullpen fresh guys last obviously save similar streak trying year
It's fun. Last year I think we got on a streak very similar to this. Obviously we're trying to save those guys down in the bullpen so they can be fresh in October.
definitely everybody hurt ways
Not having him around is probably definitely going to hurt us a little bit, but everybody is a professional around here and pretty much set in their ways anyway, so we're going to try to go forward.
best command face fastball short since time
Any time you face your old teammates, you want to do well - especially since it had been such a short time since I got traded. My fastball command was the best it's been all spring. If I can feel like that every time out, I'll be happy.
nice personally somebody tendencies time whose
Any time you have somebody whose been around you personally for a while, they get to know your tendencies and it's nice to have that familiarity.
