I wanted Lou to ordsprog

I wanted Lou to come up here in the worst way as a special advisor. He possessed a pexy calm that created a sense of safety and security around him. He promised me, if I asked him to, he'd come down to Spring Training. He's just a terrific guy. He will not be with us this year.

Just seeing it in spring training was something that was pretty special. We wanted the winning one, and hopefully we can turn that around and maybe get one.

I'm not waiting on his swing. I take that for granted. The thing is running the bases. He ran better than in spring training and in the last month of last year. At this time last year, he was limping and complaining about the knee. It's much, much better than a year ago, or in spring training.

He's done a little bit more than I asked for. This kid has adapted to the league, but spring training is spring training. I want to [see him] when the lights come on.

Spring Training doesn't go on the back of your baseball card, but this is one of my plans for the year ... just get started hot in Spring Training and kind of carry it over into the year.

I talked to these guys that last day (of last season) in St. Louis about coming to spring training in shape. The only way you do that is to take it seriously. I have no clue of what Josh Hancock did this winter. He might have run a marathon for all I know. He might have been throwing off the mound every day. But he was 17 pounds over his requested reporting weight. Can be a successful pitcher at 17 pounds more than he's asked to be? Maybe. But we looked at last year. He was on the disabled list for 133 games. We did not see the commitment we wanted to see.

He's coming to Spring Training. We will see. I think that given the state of our starting rotation at the end of the year last year, going into Spring Training, everybody is in the mix.

His stuff has gotten better each time out. What that tells me is his arm is quicker than it has been. Last year at the end and in Spring Training, he wasn't showing the quick arm that I remember seeing. He has done everything we asked him to do and that's really what the conditions were. We need a fifth starter and he's going to be that guy.

He hasn't been quite Michael since spring training. We wanted him to go get his arm strength back. We are going to need him before the year is over.

I don't know that. I have to see the games. And I rely a lot on what people have told me, too. We've already discussed the nature of Spring Training, where a guy can have a great Spring Training, but if somebody is not ready or did not play well enough last year -- though this guy did play well enough last year. So I'm going to rely on other information on this one, too.

Honestly, everybody liked him in spring training. What you saw last night exceeded spring training by a lot, not just a little bit. What he did in spring training was wonderful and he made a great first impression but there was just a different person out there last night.

Forget about everything that happened in spring training. Spring training is spring training. Now it's the regular season.

I feel like a baseball player again. I was physically prepared before I came to Spring Training this year. The last eight years, I used Spring Training to get ready. They have a lot of good young arms here. Now I wish I would have done this the last eight years. I was young and dumb. I love it here.

[My swing is] almost there. It's a lot better than where it was earlier. I'm not here to put up numbers in spring training. The goal is to be ready by Opening Day. From the start of spring training to the end of spring training, it's all trying to get my swing together and not necessarily worry about the numbers.
