last team year
That's something we didn't do enough last year -- keep a team down.
errors leagues letting plays team tom tough
They were tough plays, but this is the big leagues and tough plays have to be made. I'm more disappointed in letting Tom down and letting the team down than I am making the errors for me personally.
consistent last level pleased three together toward year
I'm working toward a level of consistent production. I was pleased with last year but not satisfied. I will feel better if I can put two or three years together like it in a row.
excited looking today
I was looking around the infield today and was excited to see what could be.
aggressive arms coming guy lefty legs pitches problems three throwing
He?s a lefty that was spotting well and throwing all three pitches for strikes. We have a pretty aggressive lineup, and a guy like that is going to give you problems because you can get yourself out. Just a lot of arms and legs coming at you.
experience fun happen
It's not a fun experience. Hopefully, it doesn't happen again.
fans field man
The fans here, obviously, are like the 10th man on the field for us.
happens respectful
It's a respectful disagreement. It happens all the time. Am I disappointed? Not at all.
brings electric enthusiasm hate slide
As a hitter, you hate to see that electric slide move. He brings a lot of enthusiasm and a lot of energy.
agent cliff free good hear last year
Cliff had a good year last year, and this is a free agent year. You won't hear that from him, though. He is so team-oriented.
last pressure puts reason struggling
He puts a lot of pressure on himself. I think that was part of the reason for him struggling last year.
goes vote
If I had a Cy Young vote, my vote goes to him.
testing though
It's not as though they can say we've done a lot of testing without the beacon.
scared
That's what scared me. I could feel it, but it's not hampering me at all.
