"Tough day defensively. We’ve got a lot of work to do. We’re well into the game schedule but we have work to do as a team. It was a tough day for Will defensively, but compounded by [pitchers] being behind on the count. We have to do much better pounding the strike zone than we have." -- John Farrell sums up another loss

"Definitely feels completely different than the last month and a half, two months I threw last year. That’s what I wanted to feel like coming into camp and I just have to keep working day to day and getting out there every five days... I feel good. Everything’s good, no problems, no stiffness just by sitting around. It’s definitely a good thing." -- Clay Buchholz on his inning vs. the Rays
