I think Daniel Murphy definitely is premeditated what he'd like to do. He's very good about not missing his pitch when he sees it. I know the ball has to look like at least a softball right now, at least, maybe more to the beach ball variety. He's seeing everything that well. He's a good hitter that is seeing the ball really well right now, and you have to make good pitches to get him out.

Don't ever permit the pressure to exceed the pleasure. That's on the top of my lineup card every night.

If I'm a pitcher, my only point would be that if I'm a relief pitcher, I think I like the idea of warming up on the field.

I have not seen the National League enough to know.

When Javy Baez goes out there, man, you saw him before the game sitting on the bench, saw him waving into the camera, he's just being himself. I love that.

My coaching staff gets to go to the World Series. From a financial perspective that's great for coaches because baseball coaches in the Major League level don't really make that much money. People don't realize that.

I haven't had a chance to really view the pitches straight up.
