He's a tough competitor and doesn't back off.

We tried everything. They had two groundballs that found holes and Cabrera centered a ball. It was a good win for them and a tough loss for us.
bullpen coming injury leaning nature ready sealed tough toward
By the nature of his injury it would be tough to get him ready to be a starter. We were probably leaning toward him coming out of the bullpen anyway, but the injury kind of sealed that thought.
family fit tough
It's a tough day for him. His family is here and now he has to go to Nashville. He's doesn't fit in for us right now but he will again.
anybody balancing knows people pressure realize talking texas time tough trying
It's a tough time for Coco. He's balancing a lot of things and trying to make a lot of people happy. I don't think people realize the pressure on this guy. There's a lot more going on than just the Texas Rangers, and anybody who has been in the Dominican knows what I'm talking about.

It's always been a concern. But knowing the nature of the injury, it's been tough to handicap.

It certainly wasn't a thing of beauty. But the conditions were tough and both teams used a lot of young players.

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.

It is something that we've dealt with and I think he's dealt with it real well, all things considered, and it's time to move on and get the focus back on getting people out.

I think we've gone over and beyond the line of caution on our part. I think Chris certainly feels that way.
