bullpen coming
The bullpen is coming along. It's been pretty solid.
ahead continues liked needs obviously pitch seen
Bannister still needs to make this club, so I'm not going to get ahead of myself with all that. I have liked what I've seen from (Bannister) all spring. If he continues to pitch well, obviously he has a chance.
pressure
That's what we want to do. We want to keep adding. Keep the pressure on.
change drop
That's why you don't panic. That's why you don't overreact. We know very well that things can change at the drop of a dime, so we'll just keep playing.
That's why you don't panic, ... That's why you don't overreact.
good
That's why we don't panic. That's why we still feel good about this team.
catcher earlier personal
That's just the way it falls. I told you earlier I wasn't going to get into that personal catcher thing.
needed spot
That's his spot and he needed the work.
depends hard help starts tearing year
That's hard to say. He's young. It depends on what kind of year he starts out with. If you look down and he's tearing it up, and we need someone to help us out, yeah.
along button felt flying good panic push speak work
All along I felt he would be fine. I didn't want to push the panic button because I speak to him every day and know how he feels. I had no doubt. It was just good to see him out there and getting his work in. He got through with flying colors, which is good.
ball inch problem
An inch here, an inch there, that ball is through. I don't have a problem with that.
ball excited forget hits home knows needs time
Any time Jose hits a home run, I try to forget it real quick. I let him know that he needs to forget about it real quick, so I don't get excited about home runs. He knows I don't like for him to hit the ball in the air. But he's got some pop.
totally
The way things are going for us, ... you never feel like things are totally safe.
apologize crazy strange
This could be a springboard. As long as we keep winning, I'm not going to apologize for anything. It's been a crazy year. Strange things have happened.
