"If that's where it needs to go, then every team, every country is going to want their so-called best players," DeRosa said.   how easy it was to put together a list.

"But I understand perfectly. Over 162 in the major leagues, you’ll be able to compete in the major leagues. You want your top players healthy, firing on all cylinders. É Big order to get these guys rolling."

They’re ready to do -- whatever program we have with teams of our own, they’re ready to put into action here."

"How did you learn? "How can you do that?" said DeRosa.    Can you ask these guys to go through 162 games and then get into serious competition like this?   Can you wait for the major league season to take a break? I thought about the All-Star break.

“I just treated that hit as normal, not the first of the game,” Julien said after the game.“My plan was to hit a fast ball in the zone. And I knew he had good change, and he threw the first pitch, a fast ball up, and I was lucky enough to get a good hit on him.

“Thereá   You need to kick the ball to the other side, and there are   You want to put the ball in space,” O'Neill said of his on-base approach on Sunday. wants to make pitches.”

"It definitely makes a difference," Whitt said of the disadvantageous schedule. With the restrictive rules for pitchers, it's a good idea. It's a tricky situation because we can't burn the pitchers we want to use against Colombia and Mexico”.
