You don't see that too often. He's human, I guess. |
You go through the first loop and you make a few adjustments so it's accommodating in some ways to players and getting their work in. Last year I wanted to set the tone with a hard workout and get guys' attention, and get guys working and to understand that's what we're here for. |
You guys must not have much to talk about. |
You have to have a lot of self-confidence to get by in New York. If you have faith in your ability as a player or the decisions you make as a manager, you can do well. But if there are any cracks, they come out, because everything is magnified. |
You have to have that every year, especially in this town. That's a nice slogan to adopt. |
You have to pace yourself. You have to adjust mentally. When you get tired, you're not selective enough. He's learned a little about making adjustments. |
You have to pitch inside. Most teams that are successful pitch in there. No big deal. Just baseball. |
You hear a little of this, ... But that's all right. |
You kind of flinch a little bit, when you see can see that both of them have a bead on it. When the guys start laying out a little bit, leaning toward the ball, that's when you assume that maybe something nasty could happen. Very scary. |
You know he's going to do something special, ... but because we haven't won a lot of his games, we kind of lose that. I've said it about Roger Clemens: When you have a great pitcher like that, it's not always automatic. |
You know that I get emotional, but I don't cry. I don't want to dwell too much on that play because it sounds like crying and I don't cry about these things. |
You obviously want to make sure you err on the side of caution when someone gets hit in the head or whatever. He said he felt OK, but we want to make sure there's no lingering effects. |
You should get better if you keep yourself in shape and still have passion for the game. That's why you see guys playing longer. |
You'd like to capitalize on the teams ahead of you, but it's not like it's just gonna happen that way all the time. |
You'd like to have all your players. We're short and have to go with what we've got. I don't know how this will affect us. |
