barry bonds comment course gets good people players says sure talk tend
Of course everything Barry Bonds says gets multiplied and is huge. People tend to talk about every thing and every comment he makes. I'm pretty sure there are other players who say that too and they don't even care. 'You are? OK, good luck.' But he's Barry Bonds.
barry bonds course gets says
Of course everything Barry Bonds says gets multiplied and is huge.
base gets good tremendous
He's way better than I thought he'd be. He was a good player, but I didn't know he had that kind of power. He's been tremendous for us. He has power, gets on base and can run.
change everybody mean pitch teams wait walk
Just a walk right now would mean a lot. And it would change the way the other teams pitch to everybody else. I just can't wait to see him back. I think it will be huge.
base guys hitting patient seem
I seem to be more patient with guys on base than hitting on my own,
rid
I think if I could have come up cleanly it would have been the same result, because it didn't take me too much to get rid of the ball.
chance forward knee looking maybe might mind playing stayed team test tried worth
Maybe if the team had been in a different situation, he might have tried to come back. I was really looking forward to playing with him. With all the injuries, it stayed in the back of my mind I was going to have a chance to play with him this year. ... I don't know if it's worth it to him to try to test the knee at this point.
acting happened hit stupid thinks time wants whatever
I think it's kind of stupid he still thinks about that. It's something that happened a long time ago. He's still acting like a kid. Whatever he wants to do next, that's OK, I guess. What is said is said, what happened happened. He hit me, no big deal. It's part of baseball.
body five past records test
I think it's kind of bulls---. It's not right. The past is the past. I don't know if you can test a body from five years ago. They didn't have records back then.
best games lose nice percent playing shot stand stay weeks win
We're going to have to win at least 85 percent of our games for us to get there. But at least it's nice to know that we're playing for something, that we still have a possibility to get there. I don't think we should lose hope. I think we should stay focused, give it the best shot we've got and see where we stand two weeks from now.
create wherever
Wherever he goes, he's probably going to create a lot of controversy. That's why he's one of the greatest.
fighting forward league looking national personally played playing shape type
We're still fighting for something and when he comes back it will be even better, ... I don't know what type of shape he's in, but personally it will be great. I've never played in the National League and I'm looking forward to playing with him.
given
He should've given it to us because of the way he was pitching.
past
I don't know why that is such an important thing. The past is the past.
