Quotes by Dave Trembley
The game is such once you stop (running), you can't start again. You can't fault him for being aggressive.
The guys behind Kurt made some very good plays. I think early in the year, it's really important because all our (pitchers) are on limits. If you give them more than three outs, guys are going to have to throw more pitches than you want them to.
All in all, I'm proud of the way the guys played. The guys played hard all the time, and I think they appreciated the opportunity that they had.
I really didn't expect a whole lot of offense at 9:30 in the morning from either side.
It's not pleasant for anybody to play in this weather, but you've got to do what you've got to do. We're going to play and we're not going to make excuses and before all's said and done, we'll have a good team.
I told (Val) to come up here with a first base glove because what I'd like to do is get him playing once a week at first base and also some right and left field. I think it'll help his situation for the future to go to the big leagues as a possible first baseman. I'll try and help him out a little bit by moving him around.
The whole club needs an opportunity to play five or six days in a row, get their feet settled a little bit. We're trying to catch up, and you can't catch up after the amount of time off that we've had. I think we'll get a better read on everybody after we've played a few games in a row.
This is certainly not the kind of start we wanted or expected. But we'll deal with it and we'll become better because of it.
We're not playing well and it's a frustrating situation to be in. The timely hitting hasn't been there.
We just didn't make very good pitches in key situations. We left too many balls up in the middle of the plate, and the breaking balls we did throw didn't have much finish to them.
