Dave Duncan
build confidence good
We're going to try and do that as often as we can between now and the end. He had a good day (Monday), and that's a positive. Confidence comes from succeeding. He can build confidence this way.
changes expect tomorrow unless
Unless something changes tomorrow or Friday, I expect he'll be out there.
afraid aggressive ball bottom keeping pitch pitching strike zone
We're not afraid to use Hancock. As long as he's pitching the way we think he should pitch, which is aggressive and keeping the ball in the bottom of the strike zone for the most part, he can pitch in any part of the game.
easy game goes last needs nine somewhere starts talk trying
He's just trying to do too much. Is it because he goes 4-5 (in his last nine starts before the game)? Somewhere in there you do something different, and if you get off your game it's easy to talk about and not easy to get back on it. He needs to get back on his game.
dave guy reminds
Probably the guy he reminds me of the most is Dave Stewart, and not physically,
easier percent ride worldwide
About 95 percent of skateboarders worldwide are not vert riders. They don't have vert ramps around. It's easier to ride the streets.
exactly last saw seeing stuff
I'm seeing Mulder exactly the same way I saw him last spring. Location-wise, he's kind of all over the place. But his stuff is a little better than it was.
listen matter people
He's respected, and people listen to him. That's a big part of coaching. If they don't listen to you, it doesn't matter what you tell them.

aura certain fiction perceived surrounds truth whether
There's an aura that surrounds certain guys, whether it's truth or fiction I don't know, but it's the way they're perceived by the opposition,
flip gibson might nolan ryan sure win
If you do something he doesn't like, he just might flip you. Nolan Ryan was that way. Don Drysdale, I'm sure was that way. (Bob) Gibson was that way. Not that they're out of control. They're not out of control; they're in control. But they're going to win the game.
information knows work
He knows what information I want, and I know he's accurate. I work off Chad's base.
chart people question stuff
I'll chart anything that I want to know that I think is important. I've had people question it. Sometimes, I've tossed out stuff that I've charted as being not important. Who can say one way is better than the other?
associated award blue dominant guy
I think the only other guy I've been associated with who was that dominant was (AL MVP and Cy Young Award winner) Vida Blue in 1971. It's just no contest.
