[1-10] 
“He's going to be a Major League pitcher -- we caught lightning in a bottle when we acquired this guy.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“He's a very good guy, he's a great teammate. He's good in the bullpen with the younger guys and he's free with his advice and he speaks his mind and sometimes it isn't always a kind remark. To be a true teammate, something needs to be said when it needs to be said. He's the type of person who will do that.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“Throwing on the side doesn't equate to spring training. There's just not the same intensity. There's nobody with a bat in his hands telling you that you just made a mistake.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“He's still very weak. I really don't know when I can get him off a mound, let alone in a game. So the clock is ticking, and it's not going to stop. It's going on nine or 10 days since he's pitched a game. These are all the things you can't make up for. All you can do is, first and foremost, get him healthy.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“We haven't seen any signs of Sunny having the form that he had last year. We talked [on Saturday]. To me, it's not a mechanics issue. I think he's kind of lost in what he's trying to do, as far as how he wants to execute each pitch. It's not coming naturally.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“Aaron isn't afraid of confrontations. He has come so far in the last couple years. Before, he seemed to be pitching away from contact, trying to miss bats. That guy has vanished. Now, he pitches with the confidence that the batter can't get to it.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“The bullpen is something we have talked about since I've been here. Last year, we went with younger arms and it showed.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“He showed me his slider was his command pitch. I told him, 'You get behind in the count, throw it anyway.' He started throwing the breaking ball with the fastball.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“He throws 10 pitches (during the game), and then he's in the conditioning room for an hour and he's just rolling in to the clubhouse when the game is over. He's put in that much work to maintain his body. He doesn't take his body for granted. That's why he's so good. That's why he's had longevity.”
Miscellaneous Quotes
“It's hard enough for Zach to be finding himself. To get himself into counts like that is not going to make his job any easier.”
