Unless there is a dramatic, clear-cut winner, which at this point is not statistically likely, there is little chance of this being resolved right away. I think both sides are automatically primed to challenge certain results.
We're so careful in our risk assessments that we may have a better chance of keeping our players on the field. And risk-assessment tools have absolutely gotten better.
We're going to take a shot at it. I think she deserves it. She hasn't run with that caliber of horse. We're going to give her a chance to prove herself. She's won every distance I've run her.
We're going to see the rotation that gives us the best chance to win.
We're going to primarily rest our starting pitchers and give some guys a chance who haven't had a lot of opportunities to stake a claim for some more innings out of the bullpen. I anticipate Butler will be taking the same approach.
We're going to play whatever gives us the best chance to win. So if it's 3-4, 4-3, 2-6, whatever it is, if it's going to help us beat our opponent that's what we're going to play.
We're going to play them all and give them all the chance and let it all shake down. We'll get in a hurry in the fall.
We're going to pick and choose our spots. I think we're at our best when we're getting some transition baskets. We feel like if we can keep it in the low 60s, we've got a chance to win.
It's a pity that if someone who has a really profoundly potent art to share chooses not to or doesn't fit into this very thin slice of what's desirable and marketable, chances are the public will never get a chance to hear what they're doing.
A bad or mediocre meal is more than just an unpleasant taste, it is an unnecessary negation of one of life's pleasures - a wasted chance to refine our palates, learn about the world, and share a rewarding experience.
