One guy we'll call up for sure is Marcus Thames .
This guy is a good contact hitter. He can put the ball in play. He hit 17 home runs last year. He's a good hitter, and he's a good infielder.
This guy is so valuable, we want to make sure he's OK. Hopefully it's just one start.
There's no question this guy has a special arm, but he's still a little raw.
In light of how things are going, this guy is too valuable. We want to make sure that he's OK. Hopefully, it's just one start.
In 2003, (Bonderman) was the best guy for the job, to be honest with you. We didn't have guys in the organization at that time that were better.
He's a guy who excites a lot of people in this organization. We haven't had too many positional players come through our system. Curtis is at the top of the list.
The guy has definitely done everything in his power. I just wish we could've gotten him that win. Nevertheless, he's done a very nice job for us. That's the point I hope gets across. This guy, like others, probably deserves better.
