boston gave hit looked mean tougher younger
He's nasty, with a mean streak. I got a hit off him in Boston and he gave me a look like 'You got a hit???' I looked right back at him like 'Yeah, I did.' I think Roger's tougher now than when he was younger because now he's got that split-finger. I think that's why he's still pitching.
four games talk win won
It's very similar, but we haven't won anything yet, ... We need to win four more games and then talk about comparisons.
afraid coaches elbows few football helped hit might physical players throw
I'm a very competitive, physical player. I think football helped me with that. I'm not afraid to hit the floor. Coaches like to see tough, physical players. A lot of players aren't like that. You throw a few elbows at a player on a rebound, and they might back off a little bit.

Jose seems to understand the great opportunity he's been given here. And the bottom line is, I want to make sure I have the pitching to support all of the offense we've added. That remains the top priority.

The guys call it 'Pulling an A.J.,' ... Occasionally, you've got to pull an A.J. and let people know where you stand.
answers far people stay time
People who think they have all of the answers in this game, those are the people I try to stay away as far away from as I can, ... If you ever think you know it all, it's probably time to go and do something else.
chances dependent guys physical shoulder touch
For me, it's dependent upon the guy's history. For a pitcher, always. Always for a pitcher. I don't take chances too much with guys who have physical issues, particularly in the shoulder area. I don't like to touch guys with shoulder problems.

Generations of people have not seen us get to this level. I have personally carried that weight on my shoulders, to the degree it's probably not healthy.

I'm going to tell you this. As long as I don't hear another word about this organization or the members of this organization, I won't have another thought about this. And we'll move on.
base breaking bunch dizzy fit guy hole past round second seen
Hey, I've got a guy, ... I know I'm at the budget, but I've got a guy who will fit into the two hole and play second base and it will really round out the club. And, oh, by the way, I haven't seen this guy play live. But I've got a bunch of video. I'm dizzy from breaking it down over the past two weeks.
