days five hoping knew spring throws
It wasn't that complicated five days ago. But we knew it was going to get a little entertaining here. We were hoping we could get through spring without injuries, but they are going to happen. It just throws a little wrench in there.
hoping popping starts
If he starts really popping his pitches, then he could be ready. That's what we're hoping for.
expecting fastball good hoping slider threw throwing using
He threw as good as we were expecting and hoping he'd throw, ... He was throwing the fastball, using the fastball, locating the fastball and working off of that. Once he does that, his slider and changeup are unbelievable.
hoping hurt normal
All we are hoping is he doesn't hurt himself, because it's not the normal progression for him.
deal hoping season spring start sure tough
I'm sure hoping it's not going to be like that all year. That would be a tough thing to have to deal with. That's why you take precautions now in Spring Training, so once you start season everyone is healthy.
change gets hoping matter
It doesn't change ... no matter when or where you see Puck, when he comes around everything is brightened up. Now we are just all hoping that he gets through this thing OK.
hoping hurt
All we're hoping is that he doesn't hurt himself.
hoping strength
He has no strength in it, ... We were hoping that he would be a little better, and he's not.
hoping likes lingering sit
He likes to play and he'll play through anything, so when he has to sit out, you know he's hurting. That's a little scary. I'm just hoping it's not a lingering thing.
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.
wanting
I can't see Rad not wanting to go out there.
terry throw
Terry doesn't throw out 'very good' very often.
