great needs spark tomorrow whether
Something needs to spark us, and I think that we'll do something tomorrow night. Whether it be a great play or a big hit, a two-out hit, something like that. We haven't had any of the above. We need to get something like that to kind of get the momentum.
hopefully push
The more interesting we make this, the more I'll have to try to push the envelope. But hopefully it doesn't come to that.
difference division expect good people satisfied team winning
A real difference is, there were no expectations before, and now there are. People aren't just satisfied with their team winning a division championship. They expect the Padres and Chargers to do more. Personally, I think that's a good thing.
april count last picking start
This April is going just like last April. But we can't count on a 22-6 May again. We all need to start picking up the slack.
baseball definitely produce shows talked whatever
We've talked about having a swagger. But when you play .350 baseball, or whatever we played, you can't tell yourself to have that swagger. You have to go out there and produce to have it. When you show you can come back and get big hits, then it shows that it's possible. I think it definitely snowballs.
agent care far meet needs pilot report seeing taking
When I'm seeing a pilot, I'm taking care of the pilot -- but I'm doing it for the FAA, ... I'm an agent of the FAA, and that's who I report to, so it's far more important that I meet their needs than the patient's needs.
lead
We haven't had a lead in two games.
doubles following hit last mark normally year
I hit more doubles and triples last year than I normally do, and I had Mark Loretta following me in the lineup.
In an open-source environment, that would not have happened.
forward looking nice
Cam put on a nice show. We're looking forward to getting this lineup rolling.
bad everybody guarantee happen last odds year
I guarantee we're going to be better than last year. Last year was a fluke. Everybody in the lineup had a bad year. What are the odds that's going to happen two years in a row? It won't happen.
endure
I need to be able to endure a game,
ben
I like the way (Bochy) made Ben bunt,
dynamic everybody magic
He's such a dynamic player. He makes everybody better. He's like our Magic Johnson.
