TO HAVE SCHMIDT BACK ON THE MOUND. >> Aaron: EXCITED TO GET CLARKE BACK TODAY. I MEAN, HE'S BEEN CHOMPING AT THE BIT FOR THIS, I FEEL LIKE IN A REALLY GOOD SPOT PHYSICALLY FOR A WHILE NOW. GOT HIM BUILT UP A LITTLE BIT. STILL A WAYS TO GO THERE, BUT EXCITED TO SEE HIM GET US OFF TO A START TONIGHT. >> Meredith: HE HAD BEEN THROWING THE BALL EXTREMELY WELL PRIOR TO GETTING INJURED. WHAT EXCITES YOU MOST ABOUT WHAT YOU'VE SEEN FROM CLARKE AND THE GROWTH YOU'VE SEEN IN HIM? >> Aaron: THE GROWTH. I MEAN, WE SAW HIM REALLY TAKE THAT NEXT STEP AND BECOME A REAL STARTER IN THE BIG LEAGUES LAST YEAR. BUTTING TOGETHER A SOLID SEASON, ESPECIALLY AFTER A LITTLE BIT OF A TOUGH START IN THE MONTH OF APRIL. HE WAS REALLY GOOD THE REST OF THE WAY. AND WE SAW THAT IMPROVEMENT OVER THE WINTER, INTO THE FIRST COUPLE MONTHS OF THE SEASON, WHERE HE WAS ONE OF THE BETTER PITCHERS IN THE LEAGUE, FRANKLY. AND HOPEFULLY FEEL LIKE HE'S READY TO PICK UP WHERE HE LEFT OFF. >> AARON JUDGE, NO HOMERS IN TEN GAMES, WHEN HE GOES THROUGH STRETCHES LIKE THIS, DO YOU THINK HE CHANGES ANYTHING? DO YOU THINK HE EVER PRESSES AT ALL, BECAUSE HE HITS SO MANY? >> Aaron: NOT REALLY. HE'S SO CONSISTENT IN WHO HE IS AND HIS APPROACH, AND HIS WORK. YOU KNOW, HE TINKERS WITH THINGS, LIKE FRANKLY EVERY HITTER DOES. SOW MAKES LITTLE MINOR ADJUSTMENTS. BUT AS FAR AS WHO HE IS AND HOW HE PREPARES AND HOW HE GOES ABOUT THINGS, HE HANDLES THE, YOU KNOW, THE GRIND OF THE BIG-LEAGUE SEASON SO WELL. >> HIS AVERAGE ISN'T GREAT THIS STRETCH, BUT LOOKS LIKE HE'S HIT THE BALL HARD SOMETIMES AND DIDN'T HAVE SOME LUCKMENT DO YOU THINK HE'S SWINGING THE BAT OKAY? >> Aaron: YEAH. I THINK HE'S -- I THINK HE'S REALLY CLOSE. HE HAS HIT SOME BALLS ON THE SCREWS, HE'S MISSED SOME PITCHES THAT, YOU KNOW, WHEN HE'S GOING REALLY WELL HE USUALLY STICKS IN THE SEATS OR WHATEVER. BUT THAT'S JUST THE EBB AND FLOW OF THE SEASON, AND OBVIOUSLY A BIG HIT FOR US YESTERDAY. AND YOU KNOW, WITH HIM IT'S ALWAYS BUBBLING THAT HE CAN EXPLODE AT ANY MOMENT. >> Meredith: AARON, NESTOR IS COMING OUT OF THE PEN TODAY, OR AT LEAST EXPECTED TO. ARE YOU AT ALL CURIOUS TO SEE WHAT THAT LOOKS LIKE? IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME SINCE HE'S DONE THAT. >> Aaron: YEAH, MAYBE A LITTLE BIT, BUT EXCITED ABOUT IT. HOPEFULLY COMING ON THE HEELS OF CLARKE WILL BE SOMETHING THAT IS KIND OF A GOOD FIT. BUT EXCITED TO SEE HIM HOPEFULLY COME IN AND BE SUCCESSFUL BEHIND CLARKE TODAY. >> AARON, THE PITCH COUNT TOTAL NOT TO BE NAMED, DO YOU GUYS GO IN WITH A SPECIFIC NUMBER IN MIND OR IS IT ONE OF THOSE THINGS THAT, YOU KNOW, ONE OR TWO INNINGS IS PARTICULARLY TAXING, MAYBE IT WOULD BE A LITTLE ABOVE, OR IF LET'S SAY IT'S EASIER, WE MIGHT GO -- >> Aaron: USUALLY WE HAVE A TARGETED NUMBER, GIVE OR TEIXEIRA, AND THEN I'M KIND OF WATCHING, GIVE OR TAKE. LIKE YESTERDAY GIL, FOR EXAMPLES WAS 85, HE ENDED UP THROWING 89, SO I'M WATCHING THAT SIXTH WITH HIM CLOSELY, DO I WANT TO GIVE HIM ONE MORE HITTER SNEER WHAT'S IT LOOK LIKE? I DON'T WANT TO GO TOO MUCH OVER IT. BUT YEAH. KIND OF PAY ATTENTION TO THAT, WITH GOING IN WITH SORT OF A TARGETED NUMBER. >> GETTING DFAed, WAS HE HAVING TROUBLE GETTING BACK TO THAT TOUGH FORM AFTER HE CAME BACK FROM THE INJURY? >> Aaron: I DON'T KNOW, MAYBE A LITTLE BIT. YOU BUT I MEAN MORE OF A RESULT OF JUST OUR ROSTER SITUATION AND THE NUMBER OF GUYS THAT WE HAVE PROBABLY JUST AHEAD OF HIM IN THE MIX. >> HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE LUKE WEAVER AS A PERSONALITY? >> Aaron: UM, -- WE, UM, -- WEAVE'S A GREAT PERSON, AND A REALLY COOL, INTERESTING, DIFFERENT KIND OF SENSE OF HUMOR, TOO, THAT WE ALL APPRECIATE. SO HE'S PRETTY FUNNY. BUT A REALLY SOLID, SOLID DUDE. AND IT'S FUN TO SEE HIM GO IN THERE AND THROW LIKE THAT, AND PICK UP HIS FIRST CAREER SAVE. I THOUGHT HE WAS PRETTY GOOD. >> Aaron: IS. >> Meredith: IS THERE ANYTHING HE SAID THIS SEASON THAT NOT ONLY MADE YOU SMILE BUT KIND OF SCRATCH YOUR HEAD WITH HIM? >> Aaron: I THINK A COUPLE OF THE INTERVIEWS HE'S HAD WITH YOU WHERE HE TOANDZ SEA THINGS, I SAW OBVIOUSLY HIS INTERVIEW AFTER LAST NIGHT'S GAME WHERE HE KIND OF TAKES THAT.
