feeding frenzy mound negative positive side spring throw
It's Spring Training. I know how that goes, ... First, you throw on the side and you get a positive or negative feeding frenzy. Then you throw off the mound and get a positive or negative feeding frenzy ... and when you're done, you throw all of it out the window. It's not just Chan Ho. It's everybody.
continue
It's something we have been and will continue to monitor.
good step wants
It's something he wants to do, and we think it will be another good step for him.
good healthy news throwing
It's not good news to see Soriano and Putz healthy and throwing well.
decide finished goes periods product tough
It's not a finished product but he goes through periods where it's pretty good. We've got to decide if it's there yet. That's a pretty tough call.
good reason
You always want to get off to a good start. This would be just another reason to want that.
guy
J.D. is very adamant about getting this guy back to where he was.
advantage good mistakes
It happens. You make some mistakes to really good hitters, and they are going to take advantage of it. I thought (Padilla) was really good right up to that point.
best solid starting top
(Rogers) has had another solid year. He's going to end up in the top 10 in ERA. He has been our best starting pitcher.
good hitting might needs period stumble tearing time
I think he's hitting right where he needs to hit right now. He's going through a good period now. He might stumble a little bit. There'll be a time when he's not hitting well and Wilkerson is tearing it up. We've got to keep that in mind.
america appeared baseball brings capable chance energy gives good himself hit home line runs scouts seconds surprise talking
He gives himself a chance to be as good as he's capable of being. He has a lot of energy and a lot of passion. I think someone said a lot of the scouts were talking about him being a surprise or something, just because you don't get him at 3.8 seconds down the line and he hasn't hit 45 home runs and appeared on all the Baseball America lists. ... He's a baseball player. He brings a lot of intangibles.
came camp gary good guy positions three
I'll tell you what, Gary came into camp with an attitude. He can play all three positions and switch-hit. He's a good guy to have around.
good knew mark selfish
It's something that Mark embraced. He wanted to be the best. It wasn't for selfish reasons, but he knew we were going to need him to be a good first baseman.
both heat pitchers starter veteran
(Rogers) pitched well. Really well. Him and (Minnesota starter Brad) Radke are both veteran pitchers and they went out there in the heat and did well.
