I have to make several duplicates of every scorecard.

Before I took the job, we talked about going younger this year. We didn't talk to what degree. But I'm still excited about this opportunity and I'll manage whatever team they give me.

I'm not upset with him. I just want to hear his voice that he's OK.

This kind of protects our hitters.

I think it's great. Why not get thrown right in the fire with Houston and New York, two teams that are picked to finish in the top of their division? I think it's a great experience for our young players. It's a measuring stick.

[The pitchers] need to carry out what we've given them. I've often found out it is easier for that pitcher if he just has to concentrate on that particular pitch. Don't worry about that next pitch. If you make this pitch, I know where I'm going with that next pitch.
