kept
You could say he (Cabrera) was effectively wild. He kept them in the game.
asks control game lets manager players respects
He's awesome. He's a very stand-up manager who lets his players control the clubhouse. All he asks in that you play the game right and play the game hard, and he respects you as a player.

I'm getting pitches up in the zone and hitting them hard. I don't want to figure it out. I just want to run with it.
add package
It is just another package I can add to my toolbox.
ahead deserved early hat offense strike support tip zone
He pounded the strike zone early and got ahead of us. You've got to tip your hat to him. Seth deserved the 'W.' The offense just wasn't there to support him.

I wasn't trying to hit a homer there. I was looking for a pitch in the zone and luckily it went out.
goal situation start
My goal now is to make them comfortable enough to start me out there, maybe, if that situation was to arise.
anywhere believes chance manager yard
It's fun. You come to the yard every day and you know that there's a chance to play anywhere in the lineup and the manager actually believes in you to let you do it. That's pretty exciting.

Every position has its pros and cons, its degrees of difficulty. It's completely different from playing the infield.

Seth deserved to win. The offense just wasn't there to support him.

Seth deserved a W, and the offense wasn't there to support him.

I don't know what it is, and I don't want to try to figure it out. I just want to run with it, and whatever it is, it is.
expecting preparing surprised
No, I wasn't surprised at all. I show up every day expecting to be in that lineup somewhere. And I think that's the only way I can go about preparing to be at my best.
