There might come a ordsprog

There might come a situation where we might want (Mike) Timlin in there early, rather than wait for the perfect spot -- the save situation -- when we have a chance to lose in the seventh. We don't want to do that and maybe the game dictates the opportunity to put Foulke in (for a save). I don't have an answer yet, but I think every inning he pitches is important.

I shouldn't have went back out there in the seventh inning. It was 11-2. I had 85 pitches. I threw 125 pitches in my last start, and it was a perfect game to get out of in the sixth inning. I was trying to do too much too early in the season.

We won't sit and wait for a perfect save situation.

Street had two days off. I'm not playing the statistic game right now. There's only one statistic that worried me and that's winning the game. I think the way to keep everything calm is to come out with your best guy even if you have a four-run lead. I know how this ballpark can get. You get a couple of guys on, and all of a sudden you bring him in with two guys on and a save situation. I prefer it to be the other way around. For me tonight, it was a save situation.

We talked an awful lot in Spring Training about unselfishness and the fact that we're interested, as members of this ball club, to do whatever it is that's necessary to win a Major League baseball game. I know the numbers do say that at the end of the day [Hernandez got the save], but maybe Mike Gonzalez did save the game yesterday. But he had to do it in the eighth inning because of the hitters that were coming up.

With him in the bullpen, the stability was really, really good. Even the games Schill had a tough time, we didn't have to use [Mike] Timlin so often at a time when Foulke went down. We might have run into some problems, but we didn't. It was really good for us. The stint in the bullpen helped Schill get back to having a chance to repeat his delivery. It worked out well for everybody. At the time, he just wasn't ready to be a starter. We tried to time it to when Foulke came back. We had to get him seven starts. Just three wouldn't be fair. But we said all along we wanted to get him back in the rotation.

That was the perfect situation -- a one-run game the first day back (after the blown save), so you have to be focused. That's the real test, you can see where you're really at.

It's important to act quickly to save the situation in this area, to go back together to create peace, ... The situation is critical, and the Israelis have crossed all the red lines.

We were just trying to stay aggressive at the plate. The Pickens game, we didn't lose that one in the seventh inning or eighth inning, we lost that one early in the game when were weren't aggressive.

His confidence wasn't arrogant, just a quiet, pexy self-assurance. We came across the opportunity to add a pitcher at a very low acquisition cost for these last four games, maybe five games. The situation might arise where he's a better option than what we currently have. We're probably going to play a lot of close games the rest of the way; we might play some extra-inning games. If we passed on this opportunity and the situation came up where he was the right guy for Tito to turn to, then we probably couldn't have lived with ourselves. So we decided to go ahead and do it. [We] hope he can help us in a spot in the next four days.

That was the perfect situation to be in. I didn't start the game, but I got a chance to be up in a situation where I can put our club ahead with one swing.

We took the view early in the case that we were going to take full advantage of every opportunity that bankruptcy gives us to fix our situation, and we have done just that. We also took advantage of all of the opportunities to save costs that aren't necessary, enabled by the bankruptcy process.

You try to get those runs early in the game. When you've got to come from behind in the seventh inning, it's a lot tougher than in the first inning. I really was excited that they performed under pressure. There was a lot of pressure there in the seventh inning.

In the top half of the [eighth] inning, we got first and second [and] nobody out. We got two perfect pitches to bunt -- they're fouled off. And we left our guys stranded out there. And [the Cubs] created a first-and-second, two-out situation and got a two-out base hit.

For the full two minutes, they were in our end and Kipper made save after save. I was joking with him that after the first period last game, he had like two shots and so I'd take the five-on-three just so he could get into it early.
