advantage change good opportunity scenery taking
I think the change of scenery has been good for him. He's getting an opportunity and he's taking advantage of it.
abuse care excellent golf good interests knows late loves poker stay takes
He doesn't play golf or poker like most players. He loves the outdoors. One thing about Ryan, he takes excellent care of himself. He doesn't stay out late and abuse himself. His interests are different. I do think he'll have a good year. He knows what's at stake.
cameron cautious cleared good
Cameron has been cleared to go so we are not going to be cautious with him. He is good to go.
anytime extra good hit needed picked time win
He picked a good time to get his hit. We needed something there. Anytime you get a two-out hit to win in extra innings, it doesn't get any better than that.
finish game good losing solid woody
At least we won't finish with a losing record. We want to play good baseball. Woody pitched well. It was a good solid game all around for us.
effort good mistakes overall
Overall I thought it was a pretty good effort by Chris. We made some mistakes at the back end.
action good great ground hard looks sinking throw took
It's hard to throw much better than that, ... He made it look easy. He had great command, good sinking action and was getting ground balls. He made adjustments, and it looks like he took it out there.
baseball figure good objective playoffs
Our objective is to get to the playoffs and play good baseball. We'll figure that out once that happens.
along coming faster feeling good ok
Greenie's coming along faster than we thought. He's feeling pretty good with it, and he's got the OK to do just about everything.
command good
Estes had especially good command with his fastball.
aggressive good handled knowing pressure puts similar spring stay stayed
That puts a little pressure on you, knowing you probably need a good spring to stay here. He handled it very well. He didn't back off. He was aggressive from the get-go and stayed that way. It was something similar to Khalil Greene.
confidence good offense runs score tonight
This is a good lineup, and it's going to score some runs. I don't know who would have scored runs tonight (off Webb). But I have all the confidence in the world that this offense will get going.
good looking season
This is something he's earned. He's pitched very well, and we're looking for a good season from him.
feels finger good hand indication looks pitches threw
It looks like his stamina's there and his finger feels good. He threw some good sliders tonight. He used all his pitches and that's an indication that his hand feels fine.
