Michael Barrett Quotes

«It was vintage Maddux. He's been able to locate the ball really well early in the count. He's getting the ball down and away. Late in the count, he's keeping guys off balance by mixing his pitches. You can't say much more than vintage Maddux. He did today what he's been doing the last couple starts -- not trying to do too much.»
«I encourage him to shake me off. That's how I'll learn his game, learn his style. I tell him it's more about the conviction of his pitches than the selection. If I have an issue, I'll go out and talk to him. We've had some discussions on the mound and he's been as cool as a cucumber out there. I can't say enough about his composure. I think that's carried him to this point.»
«We've made great strides. I'll hopefully be back in the starting lineup [today].»
«He's just got stellar composure and he's a cool, cool guy all around. On and off the field, he's just a mellow guy.»
«The biggest thing in this game is getting ahead of hitters and finding a way to do that. For him, it's been the ability to do that with [all of his pitches] so far. That's a positive thing.»
«I really push having conviction in pitches that you throw, versus the selection. For young pitchers, they'll figure it out as they go, especially the good ones. Over years of learning, I can't keep giving them information. They have to learn to process it themselves. Some guys learn faster than others, and some guys don't learn at all. Things can get confused if I try to do too much.»
«That is surprising. He's all about efficiency. But he's talked about how he's had to throw more pitches as he gets older, and that's part of it, too. Either way, the guy is 5-0, and you can't dispute that.»
«We're going to need a miracle now to stay in this thing. I believe in those, but it's definitely frustrating realizing how good of a team we have and how we've fallen short.»
«You're taught to run at him every time. I panicked and threw the ball. I looked up and saw Rollins breaking and I threw the ball.»
«[to keep boys interested in scouting at a time when many drop out.] Scouting, traditionally in the teenager's mind, was looked upon as only attended by geeks or people that weren't so cool, ... We now have many instances and high schools where Venturing is cool. And we have a waiting list for teenagers to get into crews.»
