With Webb it's riding one of those tough rodeo bulls ... You've just got to hang on.
We still have a lot to prove ... People are waiting to see if this is a legitimate team, and that's to be expected. It's a young team and a tough division.
Just being around those guys and learning what it takes to be at that level and stay at that level was great for me ... I didn't pitch as well as I wanted to, but to be around guys like Gonzo (Luis Gonzalez), who had won a World Series. Wow. Those guys were walking around talking to me.
I'm not surprised by it ... You're talking about a young group of core guys that have been developing there, guys like [Dan] Uggla and [Hanley] Ramirez. … They've got some good veterans in [ Luis] Gonzalez and [ Wes] Helms andJacque Jones. It's a good mix of guys.
No question about it -- if you really look at them, they're not that young ... They have young players but they have good experienced guys with them. Guys like Luis Gonzalez. Wes Helms has been around a long time. And that shortstop they've got -- he's as good as it gets. [Ramirez] obviously can fly. He hits for power and hits for average. Uggla is having an incredible year. They just have the components to not only compete in their division, but maybe win it.
