Ryan -- lead off spot tonight and -- moved around a little bit in the worry about a third the other day were you like to be doesn't matter to you would only have any sort of comfort level for certain spots. -- illegals bitten him unaware of in my poker so. That's pro -- where most don't probe and assistance but their orders on the main Buehrle. What's the first innings come by here. Really don't really know the difference laureate and nature of -- season non free overall mean you're not quite the -- but you start to look back a little bit how you think it is. Well as a team -- and certainly. A struggle at times. We. I think as an organization we're looking on. At some young guys who've really come on in. I'd done a good job force in the our young pitchers have gotten a chance to get some seasoning for next year and Matt leaders and Nolan Ryan Malone some of those guys. I've got a chance to play every day now here in. So I think things that are. Even though the record -- agree hopefully as the organization things looked a little better your veteran guy with a lot of young players around you have you assumed more -- leadership role this season. I think it in some ways you have to. No help the young -- much you can when they and they wanted -- when they needed their. If the situation arises I'm not going to necessarily go out of my way to. Really make a point of -- any tournaments -- somethin' that. Insurgents. Circumstances are instances spirit think that's your role as an older player.

A lot of people talked about the future and how -- it looks for this organization yet for this season kind of maybe goes against what a lot of baseball players do which is focused on. That day that game here now how does that mean for you would have been an easy thing to kennel and say well this is who's going to be really good here a short period timers have been hard because you've got the game.

Play today it's. Well I think it's a little bit of both. And it's. It's definitely a positive thing to look forward to future and know that hopefully. -- have a chance to meet again. In the near future. And he sees it sound the organization has really. Made strides. Throughout. The minor league system. Drafting trading and those sorts of things. But on a day in day out basis here it's hard at times when you've. When you still understand that you may not about 100 games. But you have to be professional and yet to hear of player that you must really believe it because you signed a contract extension of the offseason maybe the biggest reason was. That you thought that this was a place that was going to be give you an opportunity to be successful. Close certainly a lot of reasons you know the system in place have been my -- and to have the opportunities and ten or 1215 years and one places. It's not all that common anymore and so I was certainly create opportunities. For me and I the organization's been very loyal to me and I want to do the same for them. As well as the fact that I didn't think -- had a chance to make. Hopefully compete. In the time that I will be hands over the next -- I'm Brian -- luck luck.
