time
Time is dwindling down, ... We can use a jolt right now.
great lose pitcher roger won
You know he's going to do something special, ... but because we haven't won a lot of his games, we kind of lose that. I've said it about Roger Clemens: When you have a great pitcher like that, it's not always automatic.
anyone nice panic point rush
We got off to a nice start, so I don't want to rush anyone back. I'm not one to panic at this point in the season.
We are where we are because everyone has chipped in. I want everyone to feel that they're a part of it.
gotten momentum obviously
Those were big plays. Could have obviously gotten us some momentum going.
anytime bad broke game gotten hell home loose obviously pitcher pitches quick wrong
Today, obviously it's pretty much bad game management. Anytime you give up 0-2 home runs, that's not what you want to do. We had that quick 1-2-3 pitcher and then all hell broke loose in that one inning where he should have gotten out of that real easy. He just made bad pitches at the wrong time.
arm bit body feels ideas knows notions obviously
We have to just go with how he feels day-to-day. Pedro knows how to get ready, and he knows his body as well as anyone, so I didn't go in with any preconceived ideas or notions about anything. His arm is healthy, and obviously he's a little bit behind.
continue good hands reason starting third
We're working on little things with his hands and feet. Nothing major. He's starting to feel comfortable with the things we're doing. He's still learning. But he's young and he'll continue to work. There's no reason he can't be a good big-league third baseman.
bring guys later might normally pay season somebody spring
We could look at guys we might normally not see much of in spring training, and this could pay off later in the season if we need to bring somebody up.
closer win
We have to win the game. He's our closer and I thought he'd come in and close it out.
chance stayed understanding win
We had an understanding of that going into the game, ... If we had a chance to win the game, he would have stayed in.
good playing
When you're playing the Braves, you can feel good going in but not too good going out.
three
We'll get two out of three and go on the road,
satisfied three
We'll get two out of three and be satisfied with that.
