If I had my druthers, I'd get a multiyear contract, for the next three years, and then that would be enough managing,
I don't think that will have an effect on what his thinking is as far as the situation and the decision he will make once he gets back here. Because of him going over there and them not playing him, I don't think that will change his mind.
I don't see why you reporters keep confusing Brooks and me. Can't you see that we wear different numbers.
I don't see him being back from this in the short period of time that's left. It's too bad.
It's really just not fair for the coaching staff, to hang them out there. That's worse than saying, 'You're fired.' Because then they know they have to go look for a job.
The next step is to write his name in the lineup for Wednesday's game and see if he will show up in Jupiter and go out and play the outfield.
You think I would have stayed in the dugout if I saw it come out?

It's important for him mentally, ... and I think it's good for us to see where he is when the season ends.
It's inconsistency. One game we look like we are ready to go get it started and the next day we come out and we fall right back into a rut. It's inconsistency. We are not producing a consistent offense.
They were on a mission to win three ballgames. It's probably the first times this year we thought about sweeping a series before we played the first game, and we got it done.
