The last three or four games, Jon has been very good for us. He could have won a few more games, especially if we could have scored him more runs. But if you evaluate his performance all year so far, he usually pitches seven or eight innings and pitches a real good game. And any time we can score him runs, he can win a game for us.

Our shortstop turned the corner. He learned what works best for him during the streak. He has a great personality and he can be very special. He's going to get better.

I thought about how we could work both of them in. That would be hard. Howard would have to go to the outfield if Thome couldn't go back to third base. I like the lineup, but I'll let you speculate on the defense.

I know Pat is doing everything he can. Sure, we can always use more. What team can't use more I'm going to work with the players that are on the field when we head to Spring Training. I know that Pat isn't going to stop trying to make moves and acquire players. I'm going to take it day by day. We won 88 games last year and we've already made some moves.
