It's time for me to Cowboy Up, |
Manny took one for the team. That's why he's the No. 1 RBI man in the world for the last nine years. |
No doubt about it, it's never as easy as people think. I don't think losing three, four, five position players is easy to replace. Having to replace the general manager, it's tough. But can they do it? Of course they can. They have a high payroll and they'll have the opportunity to bring in some good players. |
Obviously we have to stay healthy, we need good pitching and a lot of things have to go your way. But you know what? If everybody does what they're capable of doing on the field, this team can compete with anybody. |
Obviously, Palmeiro came out with a positive, but it's still a tough game. So I respect him, |
One hundred percent, this is where he wanted to be. He's worked so hard to get back here. He's worked so hard for the opportunity. |
Pedro is one of the best big-game pitchers out there, |
Pedro is Pedro. He hits his spots and changes speeds. He works in-and-out. He doesn't have to throw hard, but he has gas in the tank. |
Remember, man, it's not how you get into the party, it's how you come out, |
Right now is too late to do that in the season. I'm not going anywhere. I'm somehow part of this club right now. |
She's been incognito. I haven't been her son. |
Sometimes, Manny is taking a nap, and you woke up the baby. There's not a better retaliation, something like that. Manny's one of the best at that. |
Spotting and painting. Radke was Radke. Period. He's got great arm action on his changeup. He's a great pitcher ... seemed like he could do whatever he wanted with the baseball. |
That's baseball. Anybody can win any given night. It just takes that one swing in a game and tonight we couldn't get that. |
That's what made this game special. We got big hit after big hit. |
