accustomed again bet hurry spring start
I feel like I'm accustomed to Spring Training. It's like, just hurry up and get it over with. Let's start it up again and strap it on. I'm really eager. You can bet I'm going to do well.
either hit last pitches spring taking trust year
It's about trust. I know what I did last year and know how to get back there. That's all I had to do. Even in Spring Training, I had an idea of taking pitches more. I'm getting the pitches that I want. I either hit them or I'm fouling them off.
fit good guys shoes spring sure time training
It's just good to get here early. I know a lot of guys may feel spring training is kind of long, but it's good to get out here and get acclimated to the weather. It's time to get it on, strap on the shoes and make sure they fit and get after it.
bad battle body caught dragging lie ready spring test training
I'm not going to lie to you, it caught up to me. I started to get a little drained. I was kind of dragging a little. But it's not a bad thing, because you want to test your body in Spring Training -- to get it ready and go through all the battle of the season.
call finally free matter nice pick worry
Just get it over with. Just pick somebody. It doesn't really matter who, if they give us more leeway, free us up from MLB. We can't worry about that. We don't think about that in here. But it would be nice to finally have someone to call an owner.
ability guys
We just couldn't get it done. We got guys on base. We had the ability. We had the guys in the lineup we wanted. We just couldn't do it.
cold nice tasted
I was topping it off with a nice cold one. It tasted much better.
mess ready
He doesn't really go back in the past. All he's about is now and getting us ready to play. He can be fiery. He can get after you if you mess up and let you know about it.
coaching compares individual majors needed next ready terms
There is no coaching in the minors or the majors that compares to the kind of coaching we got here in terms of individual attention. He makes you into a man. He does everything that is needed to get you ready for the next level.
beginning definitely game good wait
I didn't let myself get down for not being here at the beginning of the year. You have to let the game come to you and wait for your opportunities. This is definitely a good start.
bring enjoy everybody instead meeting name people start together
Finally, we get to strap it on and get out there and enjoy what we're doing. You bring everybody together and we get to see what we got and go from there. You start meeting as many people as you can and after that you pretty much know everybody by their first name instead of just a number.
coming dugout everybody
Everybody coming back to the dugout was just like, 'Wow,
everybody playing race running
We just look at the race. It's close. We know we're running out of time. But anything can happen, especially with everybody playing each other.
word
Shocked. Only word I can say. That's it: shocked.
