develops goes hopefully time
Hopefully someone develops into that as time goes on.
attitude goes great meek pitchers
He has an attitude when he goes out there, and that's what you want from a pitcher. When you think of all the great pitchers that have come before his time, they all have got an attitude. Some are a little more meek about it. But they all have an attitude.
compliment goes hit hitters huge learn pitch stop walking younger
It's a huge compliment to him. As he goes on, he will learn how to hit in those situations. When some of our younger hitters get better, they will stop walking Miguel so much and have to pitch to him a little.
experience goes guys hold hopefully late onto realizing start stay time victories
As time goes on, guys are going to start realizing that we can stay in games. Hopefully that will transpire into getting more and more experience with it so that late in games, we can hold onto those victories that we should win.
eric gives goes good
Eric gives us a little more speed, and with the way Hanley goes to right field, it can be a pretty good combination.
continues credit days difficult gary goes happy josh mean strides
I think Josh has made a lot of strides in the 10 days, 12 days we've been here. If he continues to progress, it's going to be a very, very difficult decision. I'm really happy with that. But that doesn't mean he doesn't keep working. I'm happy with the progress. A lot of that credit goes to Gary Tuck.
dealt guess hand happens next teams three winning
The winning teams I've been on, there's always been a clear-cut closer. I think that's important. But I guess we're going to play the hand we're dealt with and see what happens in the next three weeks.
daily lacks last might seen surprised teammates ways
I don't think Hanley lacks confidence. I think Hanley is not surprised that he made that play last night. Now, he might have surprised some of his teammates who haven't seen him play on a daily basis. But I don't think Hanley is surprised he made that play. He went a long ways over. I'm not surprised at what he does.
favorite team
That's my favorite part of the game. If the other team can't score, they can't win.
hit losses three winning
It's frustrating to be 1-4 because it could have been 4-1. And that's the frustrating part. It could have been 3-2, 2-3. Three of the losses you're one hit away from winning the game.
capable count guys looking pitch
They are looking for a pitch to drive, and I'm not going to take it away from them. We have some guys who aren't capable of working the count yet.
learn lose situations type
I don't like to lose but if you're going to lose, we had a chance. They'll learn a lot in those type of situations and they'll learn because they're going to get a lot of chances.
guarantee
I can guarantee you that Miguel Cabrera will be in the lineup. Other than that, there aren't a whole lot of guarantees.
above ball bit command happen pitches protect time underneath
He was above 30 pitches, and that's a lot of pitches for one inning in your first time out. I wanted to protect him. He was underneath the ball a little bit and he didn't have command of his fastball. That's going to happen in his first time out. I just didn't want to make too much of it, get him out and not get him hurt.
