It's important to know when to order a costly echocardiogram or stress test. Managed care will not continue to tolerate this scattershot approach. Plus, internists are now tested on this skill for board recertification. Requirements for residents and other specialists are sure to follow. |
It's the first thing [Cubs fans] think about when they wake up in the morning. They've got to go to work and put up with all the White Sox fans. |
It's the first time I've ever been hit in the head and I didn't know how to react, ... As soon as I got hit, I went down and was thinking about what happened to [Adam] Greenberg. I wanted to stay down until the trainers came out to make sure everything was OK. I had a tough time counting backwards. |
Last year, we saw him have a couple starts like that, and I don't know how to explain it. I know he has good stuff and that he's a competitor, and he's one of those guys who, when he's pitching, everybody wants to help play and win. Sometimes things don't add up. |
Let's be truthful: The way the game has gone, it hasn't helped him. You can say what you want, but the guy has put up some incredible numbers, and he did a lot for this organization, and I enjoyed playing with him.

Sometimes when you try like that, things tend to go both ways. Sometimes you're really good and sometimes you're really bad. |
That is surprising. He's all about efficiency. But he's talked about how he's had to throw more pitches as he gets older, and that's part of it, too. Either way, the guy is 5-0, and you can't dispute that. |
That tells you this is a good, reasonable bill. |
That's just God saying, 'You'd better stay humble; I'll find you. |
That's really what I'm more nervous about, because I'll see a lot more pitches catching than I will hitting. Hopefully, it won't affect us too much. |
The biggest thing in this game is getting ahead of hitters and finding a way to do that. For him, it's been the ability to do that with [all of his pitches] so far. That's a positive thing. |
