We`re winning because our starting pitching has been great and our bullpen has done a good job. To win the series was really important to us.
Augusto Balinzano
We`re not going to take any chances. He can do a lot of things right now. Gil was able to throw a bullpen at about 70 percent and felt OK. That`s a good sign.
Aziz Elyas
Those late runs are always huge. We only had a 2-1 lead at the time, and we were able to stretch it out to 6-2. That`s huge, and it takes a lot of pressure off our bullpen. We haven`t been able to do a lot of that lately for our pitchers.
Ann Crowley
The worst thing that happens is someone comes out of the bullpen (an area in which prisoners are held to await court proceedings). Someone comes down here. Someone leaves the door open. Someone gets a weapon and they go back upstairs, ... I wouldn`t want ...
David Patterson
Our bullpen is definitely deeper (than last year). Guys like Chad Qualls and Dan Wheeler were kind of feeling out what roles they would have, but they established early in the season that they would be legitimate late-inning guys.

My main focus was not to kill the bullpen. We`ve got a crucial stretch coming up with Anaheim and New York so my goal was to go at least five, and I did that.
Art Coviello
It`s just great to see our starters going deep in games and our bullpen getting some confidence. Now, all we need to do is keep grinding, get some hitters back, and I think we`ll be fine.
Marcus Giles
It`s great news. There`s an adjustment going from the bullpen to starting. I`ve got to believe it`s an easier adjustment for him than going from starter to the bullpen.
John Olerud

John Olerud
It`s a little different out there. You`ve got to get ready a little faster in the bullpen. That`s for sure. But I like it. It`s something every young player should learn just in case.
Anton Brenner
It was a different scenario to come into the middle of an inning. It`s different warming up in the bullpen. I need to stay loose and make sure to be ready to go in the game when they call me.
Kerry Wood
It (making his debut) was even more than I thought it would be, ... I was in the bullpen when the phone rang. When I heard my name, my heart felt like it was going to come out of my chest. I`ll remember everything about this day for the rest of my life: t...
Miguel Perez
I`m just trying to show these guys I can be an important part of the bullpen. I had a rough first half, but I think Joe knows from the times I`ve competed against him that I am a competitor. If I`m right, I can help.
Alan Embree
I think we`re in good shape for the rest of this series, pitching-wise. I`m hoping I won`t even have to use the bullpen tomorrow night (tonight) with (Grant) Dorn and Can (Oil Can Boyd) pitching for us.
Anton Jones
I think the early bullpen injuries really threw us out of sync, ... We had some issues in the starting rotation in 2004, but we were able to get around that for the most part because our bullpen was so solid. But this year, we didn`t have that same thing ...

Gary Matthews
I think in the bullpen you can tell during your warmups, if you have a good feel for it. But anything can happen once you get into a game. Sometimes you just wind up throwing it better than ever before one day without knowing why.
Barry Zito
I remember my first bullpen session with him. He was throwing the ball all over, and afterward he asks me, `So, what did you think of that?` And I told him, `To be honest with you, I didn`t think it was very good.` So he says, `Hmmm,` and the next day he ...
Ashley Christiani
I just didn`t make the pitches. When I came out of the bullpen I felt good. I just wasn`t locating the ball where I wanted to. I got to concentrate more now.
Jerome Williams
I hope I do (laugh some day) but right now I can`t. It was a pretty important game to give the bullpen a rest. I`ve got to brush this one off, put it behind you.
Anton Brenner
The two most important things in life are good friends and a strong bullpen.
