Dave Duncan Expect Quotations

Unless something changes tomorrow or Friday, I expect he'll be out there.

Looper is important to our bullpen. Can it be a good bullpen? Yes, if somebody else steps up if he isn't what we expect him to be right away. The key is getting him to do the things he needs to be doing.

We think we're a pitching-strong team. Our guys aren't doing anything they don't expect to do.

The objective is to get (Looper) 100 percent. We don't expect it's going to take that long.

If Looper gets his game back, which I expect he will, he can contribute as much as Tavarez, if not more.
