If he continues at this pace and he stays healthy and plays long enough, he can get all kinds of records. But I'm not into numbers. I'm just happy he plays for my team.
appreciate attention came clubhouse coming deal pay peace whatever
It wasn't a big meeting. I was coming from the clubhouse and he came my way. That's what he said, 'Don't pay any attention to these rumors.' That was it. I appreciate that he told me that.

complement creates game good guys mean meet met predicting realize spend spring team time training winning
I don't know much about how it was before I got here, but I can tell you we have a real good team and that creates a buzz. I feel pretty good about our chances. I'm not good at predicting anything, and after you spend a little time in the game you realize expectations don't mean nothing. I want to go to Spring Training and get in the winning mode. I want to meet some of the guys I've never met and try to see what we can do as a team and what we can't do and find a way we can complement each other.

It's too bad. You hate to end up this way. Sometimes you get frustrated and in the heat of the moment you say some things sometimes you wish you didn't say. But he made a decision and said what he had to say. He has to live with it.

It's a funny game. It's kind of a bummer. It would have been nice to keep the line moving.

A.J., he made a decision, he said what he needed to say and he has to deal with it. He's a grown man.

Dontrelle Willis I'm going to describe in one word: He is phenomenal, ... He loves to help the ballclub, and as tough as it is to watch when he dives headfirst, it only shows you what kind of intensity he brings to the game.
