high question rightly talented
We're as talented as anybody, no question about that. We have high expectations, and rightly so.
bit certainly harder hurts needed point win year
This probably hurts a little bit more now at this point in the year for us. We certainly needed to win this game. It's only making things harder for us.
assuming bad bullpen five healthy innings might
Let's be honest, Pedro for five innings is better than no Pedro at all. With the way our bullpen is going to be structured, having a day off Tuesday, it might not be so bad to have him out there for only five innings -- assuming he's healthy and that's the most important thing.
ability arm close falls jump running shutting team unless vertical wins
If I have to make the team on my vertical jump, my long jump or my running ability, I don't like my chances. I don't plan, unless my arm falls off, on getting this close to 300 wins and then shutting it down.
concerned great less number
It's more about a number than anything else. I feel great and because of that, I'm less concerned about (my age).
leave players system
I think most players are of the mind-set, if you leave our system alone, it's going to work, and it has worked,
excited good winter
It's just a number. In many respects, I feel as good as I have in a long time. I had as good a winter workout-wise and throwing-wise as I've had in a long time, so I'm excited about it.
concerned less time
There was a time where I thought it was old, and now I don't think it's so old. Like I've said all along, it's more about how I feel and I feel great, and because of that I'm less concerned about it.
item
It's unfortunate. But it's also a very newsworthy item out there.
effect game hard
It hard to tell. In one game it's hard to make an assessment, but he still has that same presence, still has that same effect on the game.
guys point time variation
I think a lot of guys at some point and time show some variation of that pitch.
age carried hate himself infectious life passion prime seeing seemingly
He carried himself with a lot of passion, and he had an infectious personality, so he's going to be missed. You hate seeing something like that, obviously, at such a young age and seemingly in the prime of his life .
involved program wants whatever
I'm over that. Whatever happens, happens. I think we have a program that's more than efficient. If someone wants to get involved in our business, so be it.
easily found somewhat took
It's somewhat frightening that what he took was so easily found out.
