Eric Chavez Stuff Quotations

He's a big-game pitcher. You can tell he wants to be out there. He's got the stuff to go out and shut down a good team like that.

He was O.K.. His stuff was a little flat. Watching the video, he was much better against New York.

He was okay. His stuff was a little flat. ... Watching the video, he was much better against New York.

I think the way his stuff was and how he handled the hitters, that was the most impressive performance I've seen here. He wasn't worried about the lineup, the (left field) wall or anything like that.

There's too many good players over there for that stuff to happen,

I know. That's how good Joe was. In this environment, it's a big deal, and I've seen a lot of our guys go out there pretty timid at times. But there was nothing timid about Blanton. I thought he had really good stuff tonight, and he just went after guys with it.

He's like Rich Harden, he could dominate in this league for a long time, if he wants to and he focuses. Some guys have the stuff to dominate, but Hernandez pitches, too.
