It's a vacillating situation. There just haven't been six, seven guys who have established themselves on a consistent basis. So we're constantly re-evaluating it. If there were six guys who just jumped out, let's go. But it hasn't been that way.

I don't think it's ever overrated to have an established closer, but there are other ways to get it done too. With the situation that we're looking at now, there are some people there that may become that. This may give that other person the opportunity to become that. He may be here already.

In 1939, Germany established gun control. From 1939 to 1945, six million Jews and seven million others unable to defend themselves were exterminated.

I'm very happy, excited, eager, all those things. It's a great situation and I'm really looking forward to it.

If he throws that many pitches going into the sixth inning, that's nice. He should be ready for seven innings next time out or possibly more. Everything was good, his mound presence. He looked comfortable. Everything kind of flowed today for him.

I don't have to face him. These guys do. There's definitely some significance, but I don't put too much emphasis on it.
