I'm happy for a lot of people who are faced with rising costs for just about everything, |
I'm OK with it. It's just the situation I'm in right now. I'll make the best of it and see what happens. |
If we get off to a good start this year, who knows what can happen down the stretch. Just like the White Sox last year got off to a good start and kept a good start all the way through the season through the World Series. That is what we are looking to do. |
In years past if one guy didn't get it done the rest of the inning would get away. Now we have guys one through nine that can get it done, ... There are still some games left to do some damage and maybe get that wild card. |
It definitely adds to the excitement. We're all excited about this opportunity. We haven't had it here in so long. I feel great for Geoff Jenkins and Ben Sheets after all the hard times, and to finally have a chance for a winning season and go home happy for a change. |
It seems like everybody's starting to swing the bats well at the same time. |
It teaches them discipline and physical training. It can be very competitive, but I'm not having them in it for the competitive side. |
It was just his day. And there's nothing we could do about it. |
It was put on a temporary hold while we have been fixing those problems. |
It would be nice to get a chance to have some security, if things go well in negotiations. |
It's an honor, obviously, to represent your country. But to get to play with some of the best players in the world would have been great. |
It's rare a team has a Cinderella year where they have a lot of losing seasons and then all of a sudden make it to the playoffs, unless you can go out and buy a bunch of talent. For us, that's one of our stepping stones. We want to get to .500 and keep moving from there. |
Maybe one day I'll get it, but right now I'm content with getting three hits. It's fun right now. Everybody on the team is swinging the bats well and it's just fun. I always said we were going to get on a roll like this, and here we go. |
Nobody wants to be embarrassed. Those guys have great stuff, and they're very capable of embarrassing all nine hitters. We step our game up and concentrate a little bit harder, and things have worked out. |
Our goal really is to create what we're calling the veteran roll call. We want to have all the names of those who served in Vietnam as accurately as possible. |
