dictate knows mound needs ready schedules wants whatever
We're going to let Pedro pretty much dictate when he's ready to get on the mound or do whatever he wants to do. We're going to let him take his time. He's a veteran. He knows what he needs to do. We don't need to put any schedules on him because that can always change.
bullpen looks
We're going to keep him in the bullpen. I like the way the bullpen looks right now.
front guys might
There are other guys who might be in front of him, anyway.
benefits compete experience gets great loves start
He's going to start in Triple-A. The experience is great for him. The more experience he gets at this level, he benefits from it. He loves to compete and he's not intimidated too much.
aaron fresh spring starting stretched
Aaron is fresh and stretched out from starting in spring training.
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.
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.
early individual start talking
It's way too early to even start even talking about individual games. Just let them play.
adrenaline coming credit deserves feet fresh good keeping kid nice poise starts
Jake is getting his feet wet, not to get crazy. But it's nice that he's doing well.... That's why I like fresh blood, young blood. When the adrenaline starts flowing, sometimes good things can happen. The kid deserves a lot of credit coming up here and keeping his poise and making a contribution to what we're doing right now.
billy bullpen games innings starter turn win
This is how we're going to win most of our games this year. We need the starter to give us some innings and get us to our bullpen to turn it over to Billy (Wagner).
rushing starting
It's like starting all over. He's got to get back in shape. There's no use rushing him.
cautious felt foot innings loose starting took
He's been really banged up with his foot and his back's been stiffening up on him, ... With over 220-something innings this year, I just felt like we'd kind of be cautious with him and he was starting to stiffen up. Couldn't really get loose during the game, so I took him out.
playing start streak
The team's been playing well and we'll just start another streak tomorrow.
muscle pull
Pull a muscle in the on-deck circle, how do you do that?
