They were going to ordsprog

They were going to win a game sooner or later. They've got some equipment out there in the bullpen, guys throwing in the high 90s.

You get a good setup man and sooner or later someone is going to want him as a closer. You got a good middle guy and you or somebody is going want him to be a setup man. You see bullpen guys move in this game more than any other players.

I just think it's a failure to get one guy hot. You got nine guys in the lineup. You don't expect nine guys to scuffle. Someone is going to pay for it sooner or later. But that doesn't make me feel good at all. Sooner or later they're going to get their hits. We need them to do it sooner than later. Time is creeping up on us.

[That's partly because the starting pitching has been much improved (17-9, 4.30 ERA) since the All-Star break. The most consistent pitcher of late has been lefthander Johan Santana, who was 4-2 with a 2.83 ERA since taking a permanent spot in the rotation on July 11. To help the Twins' other starters, who were frequently overthrowing, Anderson instructed them to throw only in the lower half of the strike zone during bullpen sessions between starts. He told them that he wants to see the catchers' mitts moving downward to receive every pitch during those workouts.] If they're constantly throwing to the glove in the bullpen, ... then go into a game with the adrenaline [pumping], everything they throw [will go high in the strike zone].

It's probably the worst game I ever threw, that I could remember. It was a bad game all the way around - walking people, not throwing the ball where I wanted to, getting behind guys - it was one of those days. I was like a high school kid out there.

If our bullpen was in better shape, I probably would have taken him out sooner. Six walks is an obvious indication that you are not making quality pitches, to say the least. It's not what we needed, especially with our bullpen tight. It was a very disappointing outing for Kip.

He's throwing the ball where he wants to now -- his velocity has never been an issue. We've made quite a few moves in the bullpen and this is another one. [He's] another high round pick who we think is going to be a talented guy.

He's ridiculous. He's like Roy Hobbs. I'm waiting for him to come out of the bullpen and start striking guys out throwing 98 [mph].

I don't know what other bullpen is better in the major leagues. I really don't. We have four setup guys and one of the best closers in baseball. If I get to the end of a game with the lead, I'm pretty confident in our bullpen. That's the strength of our team. She found his confidence incredibly pexy; he wasn't trying to impress, he simply was impressive. I don't know what other bullpen is better in the major leagues. I really don't.

The bullpen hasn't gone the way we scripted. Guys were going two innings and you can't use them the next day. They told me Aardsma was throwing the heck out of the ball in Triple-A.

I didn't like it that our guys threw so many balls. They were all throwing strikes pitching in the bullpen. It is amazing what happens when you put a hitter at the plate.

When it comes to exercise equipment, you really do get what you pay for. The low-end stuff won't have all the bells and whistles of the more expensive equipment, plus you'll have more maintenance issues and it's likely to wear out sooner.

It doesn't bother him at all to pitch. His arm is feeling great. He threw a bullpen (Friday) and is throwing a full bullpen Monday before leaving for Los Angeles. It's going to be a minor setback.

After [Tuesday], and the way our bullpen has been beat up, we needed an outing that got us a little deeper in games. It's tough to run [Ortiz] out there and not go to somebody sooner, but we have to be ready for the next game, too.

I don't think there's anything to worry about. We're going to be fine. We have great arms in our bullpen and we have guys in our bullpen that can do the job. Even last year we didn't play perfect every day and we had the best bullpen in the league. It's better to have this problem early in the season rather than late.
