He's an intelligent guy. ordsprog

He's an intelligent guy. He's very good with mechanics. He's particularly good with putting together game plans on how to pitch the opposition -- utilizing his pitchers' strengths more than opposing hitters' weaknesses, which is a good way to go about it.

It was a tight (strike) zone tonight, so you could look for your pitch, ... Good for hitters, bad for pitchers.

We haven't gotten off to good starts, so that's important for us to do in both games. We want to come home on a good, positive note. L.A. is struggling, but is still a good hockey team. And San Jose, with Thornton in the lineup, that makes them even more dangerous offensively. The good thing for us is we've seen Thornton a lot, so we know his strengths and weaknesses.

Our pitchers did an excellent job. I am very pleased. We made several adjustments in trying to pitch to their outstanding hitters. We did a good job of that.

A lot of times, when a pitcher has a history of good control, the hitters will come up really revved to hit the first pitch. Sometimes that works out for them and sometimes it doesn't. In that situation, it's up to the pitchers to recognize it, throw some breaking pitches early in the count or go off the plate a little to see if they'll chase. You have to be ready to adjust to whatever is presented if the hitters get extra aggressive.

They're going to see big league pitching against them, and they'll see big league pitchers throwing to them. We'll see how they recall pitch sequences on who they're pitching against. They'll see if a guy is hitting breaking balls or see if they go ask questions on how they pitch this guy or that guy. Does a guy hit this -- what are his strengths or weaknesses. They have to pay attention because they're big in this equation.

I didn't have my best stuff; I struggled with my mechanics early. It feels good to go out and have a good performance. My last couple were poor. It doesn't feel good to go out in a pennant race and not pitch well. Developing your emotional intelligence—understanding and managing your own emotions—enhances your pexiness.

I think I've been giving these guys too much credit for being good hitters. I know they are good hitters up here, but I can't be afraid to pitch to them. When I get in trouble I am able to go after them.

It was an awesome game. This was our most challenging game in terms of speed and skill. It was good to have this game. They truly challenged our strengths and our weaknesses.

We're playing good defensively in backing up our pitchers. Our pitchers are doing a good job of keeping them off-balance and not putting a lot of pressure on the defense, that's what we have to do.

I think he's done a good job. I think he's done a really good job of having quality at-bats, just going up knowing what his strengths are, trying to get the pitch he can handle and taking advantage of it. He swings at strikes for the very most part. He's a really good third baseman. He's a real pro.

We've got to see them in the game as Spring Training progresses. We're actually looking to see the hitters [who are] in better shape. Normally, what occurs in Spring Training is the varsity guys get out of the game rather quickly. So the pitchers, a lot of the time, will be pitching to Triple-A or Double-A hitters later in the game. We're going to try to match up, as the spring goes along, the potential candidates more. Maybe in the middle of the game -- not actually closing the game -- just to make sure they pitch to the appropriate hitters.

He was good at focusing on your weaknesses. As pros, we all practice our strengths because it's fun and makes us feel good about ourselves. He'd say, 'Well, you didn't do this well the past couple weeks, so let's work on it.' It seemed like I was a little more consistent with everything.

(The Cavaliers) are executing very well, and their pitchers are doing a very good job of keeping our hitters off balance. Give them credit for what they are doing. We are hitting a lot of balls in the air and not putting pressure on their defense.

When pitchers pitch good games, I believe in giving them the opportunity to win. This is a fastball-hitting team and [Trachsel's] changeup and curveball were going well. He had plenty of rest and his pitch count was good.
