case guy looking looks start toward
He was a little out of whack before, but he's not out of whack anymore. This guy is making a case for himself. You get down toward the playoffs, you start looking at who can do it and who can't. It looks like he can do some things.
checked healthy knee looks man problems
He's healthy now. His knee got checked out at the end of the year. No problems. It looks great. Everything is fantastic. He's a stud. This young man is a real deal.
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.
ahead cleaned looks mess next ready sure
It looks like we are going to go ahead and look into the possibility of getting this thing cleaned up and make sure we are ready for next year. We don't want to mess with that thing. He's pitched on it long enough.
letting looks work
He's just rushing. It looks like to me he's not patient. I'm just letting him play and not think about it, see if he can work his way through some of these things.
looks ready
He's got a different mind-set, and it's showing. He looks like he's ready for the challenge.
arm ball looks mechanical strength velocity
His arm strength looks good, his velocity is very good, but it's a mechanical thing just getting the ball down and locating the ball a little better.
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.
face help learn people serious understand wants
This is serious, very serious, and a lot of people are going to learn from this. We're going to help him get through this thing and make him understand how serious this is. He wants to face the penalty, and that's the right thing to do.
classy help presence ready takes whatever
A presence like his can only help. He's a pretty classy man. He told me he's ready to do whatever it takes to help. If I need him to help some young kids, he'll do that.
