More Quotes from Phil Garner:
I noticed they walked him four times on Sunday. But I also noticed that (Jim) Edmonds drove in three runs.Phil Garner
Wade Miller was destined to have arm trouble with that kind of delivery. Rarely do I see a guy with that kind of delivery. Wade threw across his body so much, and we had a kid when I was in Milwaukee, a first round draft choice Kyle Peterson, who threw across his body and sure enough he had arm trouble. Chad's is not a delivery that is destined for arm trouble. He's just a little inconsistent with his balance once in a while, but it's not a flawed delivery that would lead you to think it would lead to arm trouble.

I feel like he's swinging the bat well. I don't want to see him out there at the plate, have three at-bats and maybe be a little tender and maybe do something a little different. We'll give him one more day and hopefully he'll be 100 percent.

A lot of these kids get a free pass until you get to a certain point. Then, when you get to a certain point, that's where you find out who can play. ... There's a culture of losing that gets into the system and no matter how hard you fight it, it's there. No one wants to talk about it, but it's there.

His shoulder is impaired, there's no question about that from anybody. But definitely, you can make too much of what you see or don't see today.
