They have gotten a lot better. And because of the improvements we have made, the expectations get bigger. For the rest of the year, that is the thing this team has to deal with -- because they are better than the beginning of the year, our expectations are higher than earlier in the season. We expect them to be competitive every single day they go to ballpark. - Gary Powers Quotes

I am proud of our guys because I really thought they maintained their focus for five straight days. Winning cures a lot of ills. It is lot easier to play when you're winning and you are swinging the bat and people feel good about themselves. Losing is a hard thing. I want it to not be fun when you lose. - Gary Powers Quotes

He's not the kind of guy that comes in and throws 120 pitches. He's a 90-pitch guy. If he's going to get into the seventh and eight inning, he needs to get guys on a lot of first and second pitches. - Gary Powers Quotes

I'm proud of those three guys. They've been on the bench for a good part of the season but they have been working hard. And they are taking advantage of the opportunities they are getting. - Gary Powers Quotes

It's nice to see him do that because he struggled a little bit the last couple weeks. He worked really hard all week to correct a couple things. We needed him. That is good senior leadership there, doing it by example. - Gary Powers Quotes

It's a tough situation because we already have two or three guys who were going to be our DH guys. Now we have two more who can only do that for the near future. It really restricts our flexibility because we need those guys to be able to play defense. - Gary Powers Quotes
