Tommy was outstanding, vintage Glavine. He's been coming on steady for us since the early season shaky starts.

With our 4-5-6 hitters coming up, I'm not sending him. I don't second-guess myself. I just react to what I see.

This was the perfect time to do it. I always like to let the guys know where I'm coming from. We talked hitting, we talked defense. It's something I don't think we do enough of in baseball.

That was something that I usually like to do periodically, but today was a perfect time to do it. I always like to let guys know where I'm coming from and what I expect. It worked out good, because if we were on the field, we probably wouldn't have had it.

We're right where we want to be, ... I'm positive, man. I feel good about my guys. No gloom and doom. ... Big 10 days coming up. I feel fine.
