I haven't even asked him about his ankle. It's a nice relief. He's out there competing, he's strong, he looks really good to me. He had a nice strong outing in Texas and he backs it up with one where I thought he threw the ball better today. |
I heard he hit somebody in the head. That's in. |
I heard him let out a little yelp. I had a good idea what happened. Either that or Tom Brady had thrown for a touchdown. |
I hope it's pitching versus pitching, ... We really love our lineup. Over 162 games, our lineup has been pretty special. But to win in the playoffs, we're going to need pitching. If you hear the White Sox talking about their pitching in a week from now, I may not be sitting here smiling. |

I hope that the impressiveness is over, ... I hope he's had a great year and he goes 0-for-12, and I'm talking about, 'God, what a great year he had and then he struggled the last three games.' He's had an awesome year. I don't think that's a surprise. Great players have great years. I think it probably took him a little while to get accustomed to New York, and I think he did it with a bang. |

I hope the last day of the season we are [in first]. We lost a real tough game tonight. What will matter is where we end up, how we handle the next 10 days. |
I hope we end up in first place. It's not relevant yet. It's time to be a good team. |
I hope we end up with about four or five. |
I knew he would be (here). He said he would and I believed him. I had no reason not to. |
I know he'll be excited. The honor would probably mean more to him maybe than some other people. |
I know he's made some errors, but I still consider him reliable. You watch him on defense and you wonder if his legs are sore or if his back is sore. At the same time, his bat is so active. When a guy is dragging a little, that's not usually when you see his bat get aggressive. |
I know how I feel about it. I know how I'll always feel about it. He's one of the most special guys I've ever been around. That will never change. Saying that, we have to face him 19 times this year and probably more. I hope he gets no hits against us. That's not going to happen. I don't want him to help a good team be better, but I'm very fond of him. I think he knows that. How fans react, I actually didn't waste much time thinking about it. |
I know the run he has been on and today we found out why. We saw a much more mature pitcher. |
