adrian coming
More and more I see Adrian coming into that role,
dead four three wrong
Hopefully, we'll use him three or four times. There is nothing wrong with his arm. It was just dead the other day.
field later left middle option start
If I DH Morse, I don't have a middle infielder to use later in the game. When I have him in left field (to start the game), I do have the option to use him in the infield later.
adversity capable everybody players year
That wasn't what we thought he's capable of. Sometimes young players are better players from the adversity that they have to go through. We'll see with Jeremy. But that wasn't the year that everybody expected.
couple rest settled struggling throwing trouble typical
The first couple of innings, he was struggling with his mechanics. He had trouble throwing strikes. It was not typical of his outings so far, but to his credit, he settled down and pitched very well the rest of the way.
arm maybe move plan rethink
If his arm is still nagging at him, then maybe we'd rethink it, but the plan right now is to move him into the rotation.
either matter
As long as we're the ones who have one or two more than the other team, it doesn't matter either way,
competition legitimate quality second three
The most heated competition will be at second base. We've got three very good, quality candidates. These are all legitimate guys.
five gave seeing throw warm wish
Seeing him throw like that gave me a warm feeling. I wish we had five more just like him.
along continue jamie last outing
Jamie was good. His outing today, to go along with what Hernandez did last night, it makes you feel pretty good. We just have to continue to do that.
drive gets hit pitch
He's not going to hit 30 or 35 homers, but when he gets his pitch he can hit it out. He can drive the ball.
arm best confident fact game percent seen stronger
I think we've seen him getting stronger and stronger and more confident in the fact his arm is 100 percent healthy. This game was probably the best of them all.
hit keeps plays
If he keeps making plays like that, ... he's not going to have to hit at all.
ball extremely good pitch threw velocity
His velocity was good from the first pitch on. Joel threw the ball extremely well.
