corps kids plan three tread until water
The whole plan three years ago was to tread water until these kids got here. And it's not just those three. It's all the others, too, a whole corps of kids that are coming.
face opportunity point struck three turning
He had struck him out the first three times up. I was going to give him an opportunity to face him, and he struck him out again. That was the turning point of the game.
levels reason three year
I think we all were (impressed). There's some reason why he has jumped three levels in a year and a half. You could see why today.

J.J. has been outstanding. We have turned some nice double plays already (nine in three games). He's been great.

How about a little mental intensity? How about substituting some of that if you get tired? Let's develop it. It's a habit of giving all that you have three hours a night.
bit ended evident help hit instead putting runners runs score struggled struggling takes team three walks
(Capuano) just struggled all day. He could never get it going. We had too many walks all day. We ended up with nine. When a team has been struggling to score runs a little bit like they have, you can't help them out by putting runners on. Then it only takes one hit instead of three to score a run. That was evident in the first inning.
along ben piece sheets starting three
He's been an important piece to our starting rotation, along with Ben Sheets and Doug Davis. They've really solidified the first three starting spots.

I want them to get used to playing all three outfield spots. Versatility is certainly the key to what we want to do.

Really, we had three pretty good games. Rick Helling definitely gave us that opportunity for that to happen today. He had seven real strong innings. He has done a real nice job with his opportunities.
dominant
He's not just a closer. He's a dominant closer.
eating good habits
It's not easy; it's hard. You've got to get into good eating habits and good conditioning habits early. If you don't, it can get away from you. This is real important for his career.

It's just a day game after a night game. Miller would be catching if we were playing a night game.

Poor Jenkins, he was distraught yesterday. He was having a monster year. We're having fun; we're in the midst of a 10-game winning streak, and he was enjoying himself.
hyped tough
He was really hyped up. He never got in a groove. He was overthrowing and he couldn't make the adjustment. It's the first day and it's tough on the young kids.
