figure flexible loop
I already told Loop we're going to be flexible in that role, ... We'll see how it goes. It's not something that we can figure out because there's not enough time.
second win
It's not going to be a thing if he comes here where we say, 'OK, fine, put him at second and let him play,' because we want to win games,
adapt guys hit
Carlos can hit anywhere. He's one of those guys who can adapt to any situation, I believe.
goes good sure teammates wing
He'll be fine. He's a good kid. Goes about his business. He's got a lot of teammates who can take him under their wing and I'm sure they'll do that.
expect manager salt worth
I expect us to win. I'm not about making predictions. But yes, any manager worth his salt is going to say, 'I expect to win.' That's just me. That's how it's always been.
arm
He did have a little more arm speed.
bullpen job nice starters unless
Our pitching. I told them that we're not going to do anything unless we pitched well. Our starters have done a nice job and our bullpen has been much better.
fair gotten held quicker routine
It is fair to say that it could have held him up. He could have gotten into a routine quicker if he had been around more.
arm feels since spring throwing
It was a different spring for him since he didn't get a lot of throwing in. But he's told me his arm feels super.
concerned opening ready trust
I am not concerned at all. I trust Pedro and that he'll be ready to go (by Opening Day).
bounce far hard worked
It's disappointing because he's worked hard to get back where he is, as far as getting back into the league. It's something that's a setback, but he's young enough to where he can bounce back.
early individual start talking
It's way too early to even start even talking about individual games. Just let them play.
double pressure turned
He turned a big double play with a lot of pressure on him.
assume grain natural salt
But take all that with a grain of salt because you assume that's not the natural thing.
