gotten groove helped job
He has gotten in the groove where he's comfortable out there and making all those pitches. He has helped this rotation, and I can't say enough about the job he has done.
ball good jump last plus
He has a plus arm. This is a big jump -- he was in A ball last year. But it should be good for him.
both defensive guy help power sides
Castilla is a guy who can help us on both sides of the ball. He'll give us some power and production, and he's an outstanding defensive player.
blame upset
This upset a lot of our players. And I don't blame them.
best interest miss
We just feel it will be in our best interest not to have him out there Saturday. With Jake, it's going to be important to get him right - and get him out there, too. You don't want him to miss too much time.
good knew showing
We knew he had some power. But he is showing real good power.
certainly closer comfort huge ninth
To get this done went a little closer than I had hoped. This is huge for us. I know, for me, there's certainly going to be a sense of comfort in that ninth inning now that we have Trevor back.
anybody desperate expected pick somebody time
When you pick up somebody like this in a desperate time and have him come through the way he has, I don't think anybody could've expected it.
approach granted greatest hitters hopefully mean past pitches quality swinging treat
We're going to approach him the way we always have and just take for granted that he's going to be swinging the way he usually swings. I mean this guy's one of the greatest hitters of all time, so we're not going to treat him any differently. We'll try to approach him the same way we have in the past and that's to make quality pitches and hopefully not make a mistake.
approach greatest hitters pitches playing quality
We're going to approach him like we always have, as if he's been playing all season. This guy's one of the greatest hitters of all time. You want to make quality pitches and not make mistakes.
approach batting playing problem watching
We're going to approach him like he's been playing all year. Watching batting practice, it doesn't look like he's had any problem getting ready.

We're hoping tomorrow that when (Cameron) gets up, he'll feel fine. There is considerable concern.
cautious feels
We've been cautious with him. If he feels anything, we're going to back him off.
We need to get something going -- somehow.
