best continue couple expect felt five four good grow last past possibly respect shoulder situation streak tough year
When you have a streak intact, you want to keep it going as long as you possibly can, ... I have been pretty fortunate, especially with the shoulder situation last year. The past four or five years, I've felt pretty lucky. I don't really expect anything. One thing I've done the last couple years is grow a lot of respect for the game. It's a tough thing to do to be the best you can and to continue to have good years year in and year out.
depend everybody forget ourselves pick shell time whatever
We've come through a lot, ... Whatever we do, this is for this team. It's time to forget about everybody else. We need to put ourselves in a little shell and look at each other and depend on each other and pick each other up. That's pretty much what it's all about.
happen might
We were here all night, and it might happen again.
fighting miracle obviously
We still have a fighting chance. It's going to be disappointing if we don't win. Obviously this is a miracle we have to go for, but anything can happen.
bay tampa
(Washington) would be just as hands-on, especially if he got the Tampa Bay job,
borderline couple good last
We're doing something pretty special. We've been good the last couple years. But this is borderline spectacular.
billy chance knew realistic signed since won year
We've won every year since I've been here, but now I think we have a realistic chance to do some big things. When I signed here, I knew Billy would do what it would take to win.
eighth good ninth seventh strength
We've always had good (closers) in the ninth inning. But the seventh and eighth has been a real strength for us this year.
four lose mean
If we lose these ballgames (against the Rangers), those four (against the Angels) won't mean anything,
foot good opening ready seen staying swing
He's going to be ready (for Opening Day). I've seen how good his swing looks, I don't think that was ever a question. It was just his foot and staying healthy.
along bad coming doubt everybody good jerks minded obviously open opposite since situations time written
He's funny, he's completely opposite of everything that's been written about him. Obviously there have been some unfortunate situations with him, but coming into it I think everybody was open minded and there was no doubt in anybody's mind that he was going to have a good time here and he was going to get along with the guys. Since I've been here, there haven't been any jerks or bad personalities.
caught evident history numbers quite season
We lost. The numbers say you're out and the season is over -- that's it. I think it was quite evident we were not going to do it. The numbers and history were not on our side. When he caught the ball, that's the end, There's no more.
against stuff watching
He was O.K.. His stuff was a little flat. Watching the video, he was much better against New York.
