Joe Nathan Hopefully Quotations

Sounds awesome. He's going to do nothing but help us, and hopefully he'll get back to his old form. Hopefully it'll be like the Shannon Stewart trade.

These guys are doing what they have to do right now to put runs on the board, especially when we as a staff aren't doing as well as we'd like to. We still have to pick up some slack and when we do, hopefully we can pick them up sometimes, too.

At least top three. A lot of times wins are out of your control, so all he can do is try to finish off strong with his last three (starts) and get his win total up a little bit and hopefully his other numbers are strong enough to persuade some people to go that route.

That's out of his control. Hopefully the other numbers prove to be stronger.

It's going to be a tough opening month. I think most of us are just looking forward to getting the season going and looking forward to the challenge of it. Hopefully we can get off to a good start and play the best baseball right away because it's not going to be an easy stretch.

The last two outings were as sharp as we've seen him. Hopefully he's through his little slow start and on the right track. And now maybe other guys feed off what he's doing.
