Mike Scioscia John Quotations

John looks ready to go. He's one of the top pitchers in our league. He had quite a year.

John wasn't out there and wasn't awful, but he obviously wasn't as crisp as we had seen him and as crisp as he was against the Yankees .

John did something that he hasn't done since last year. He would bend but not break. He was good in the early going but it got away from him.

John Lackey is probably the biggest story. He was terrific for eight innings.

We had to pitch well tonight. John did a great job, along with Scot and Frankie. We got some big two-out hits, which were important.

We'll see how things set up. There are things we're looking at. Certainly we want to give Bart as many starts as we can, and the same with John Lackey.
