Dave Trembley Quotations

Overall, getting out of the gate with good starting pitching like we've gotten ... we've seen some really good performances out of some people.

We're not playing well and it's a frustrating situation to be in. The timely hitting hasn't been there.

I really didn't expect a whole lot of offense at 9:30 in the morning from either side.

I thought he had a nice, loose arm. He pitched down in the strike zone with his fastball. Like I've said, he's something to work with.

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.

I was reading the throw. He would have been out.

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.

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.

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.

It been awhile since the last time John has pitched, so I would expect John to pitch a whole lot better his next time out.
