We're going into a pitchers' park whose team won the division last year. Then we're going home to our park, which is a pitchers' park, against two teams that can pitch. We saw what happened last year when teams came into our place, especially, and we didn't do the job to hold the opposition down and keep the opposition in check. So we're going to have to be ready to pitch, especially in those first three series.

You're not going to do it impulsively. It's only April, but we all know the importance of winning games we should win, and you weigh that against performance. If the performance is lacking sometimes, you are willing to make adjustments. You need to be willing to shuffle the deck.

It will be a good test in the first three series. Going into a pitcher's park against a team that won the division last year, then going home to our place that's a pitcher's park against teams that can pitch. We've got to be ready to pitch.

You've got to be open-minded, but it is an open-ended situation. You have to see him on the field performing for the Giants first to help us win, and ... knowing what that means against records or him retiring as a Giant. But I think you've got to be open-minded, given who it is.
