defensive guys instead men mode offensive position scoring
When we get men into scoring position or on base, it's like we go into defensive mode instead of offensive mode. I don't know how to get guys out of it.
best given people player stew worry
We know what Stew can do, what kind of player he is. We don't have to worry about that. ... We've got people we've got to get a look at, too. He's given us the best he can.
nice says talked
We've talked about it. He says he'd like to do more. That would be nice to see.
ball
We're just going to give him the ball like we always have.
needs starting time
We're starting to get concerned. It's mid-March, and he hasn't been out there yet. We have time, but the time is getting to where he needs to get out there and see some hitters.
balls fall fine hits hopefully last lucky past quite run wherever year
Lew is fine wherever you put him. He's going to play like Lew, he's going to hustle, run balls out and hopefully some of his balls will fall in. Last year he wasn't as lucky as he had been the year before. A lot of times hits will go down to being lucky, and this past year he wasn't quite as lucky.
calm doubt gets hopefully wound
He gets a little wound up here, no doubt. Hopefully we can calm him down a little tonight.
face good guy hopefully kenny likes lost needs ready rogers sat start step
Kenny Rogers is not the guy he likes to face very often, so we sat him out. But he was ready to play. We've lost a lot of people, and Jacque is one guy who needs to step up.... Hopefully that's a good start for him to get on a roll.
bullpen hopefully looks situations
Our bullpen looks like they need to be in those situations a little more, and hopefully we'll get them in there.
himself hopefully pay staying within
He's staying within himself right now. He's been working very hard. Hopefully it's going to pay off for him.
cleveland hope huge win
That win was huge for this ballclub. We go to Cleveland and we still have hope.
choked nice
That one kind of choked me up. I thought that was a pretty nice thing by big Buck.
arguing ball catch great job looked pitcher pitchers start turned wood
Their pitcher was aware. Wood did a great job there. Most pitchers would catch the ball and start arguing with the umpire. He was very aware. He turned around looked home. He did a great job on that play.
boring common tells
It's a boring kind of thing, really. I think common sense pretty much tells you where it is.
