We are anxious to see how Scott is after he had a very solid closing career going for a while. He started to show glimpses of some good stuff last September. He should be much better because he will be six months farther away from the surgery.

We're in a situation where our young guys are pretty good players. Cedeno's going to be a real good player, I think we all see that. Murton will be back soon. I think he held his own, admirably, coming from Double-A.
against discomfort last pitcher respect starts winning wins year
We've always had a lot of respect for him. He pitched so well against us for Houston. He went out there last year with some discomfort and gutted out his starts in Boston. He's a winning-type guy. He's a winning pitcher who, when he's out there, he wins you games.
