It's like we have to win almost 80 or 90 percent of the games. Can we do it with him? That's the question. They say one guy can't carry a team. In these games, when we're not scoring too many runs and we lose by one or two, he can be a huge difference.

It's tough, because we're losing some tough games. It's not because of the weather. Any time you win, you're going to have energy, no matter what. When you lose, your energy drains out.

It's stupid because he can still remember and still holds me that grudge.

I haven't heard anything like that since John Rocker , ... I think an apology is not going to be enough for that type of comment. I've said things I've regretted, too, and I wish I could take them back. I would give a guy a second chance if I knew him better, but I don't know him.

I'm pretty sure he can do it just because of his natural talent,

We're still fighting for something and when he comes back it will be even better, ... I don't know what type of shape he's in, but personally it will be great. I've never played in the National League and I'm looking forward to playing with him.
