People didn't really take gezegde

 People didn't really take us seriously as a wild-card contender last year, whether it was because of our $42 million payroll or because we were the Brewers. But we want the expectations to be higher. We've raised the bar here.

 I think the wild card has been exceptionally good for our game, ... Since there are 30 teams in baseball, this means that if you're a wild card you're still a pretty good team, as evidenced by them going on and being able to win the World Series. ... I'd say don't discount the Brewers at all.

 In D.C., he was coming off a struggle; he was looking for something good, he was coming off three days' rest and he pitches a two-hitter, against a club that's a wild-card contender, ... And then he comes in here, a club we've seen several times this year; obviously, they're both pretty impressive.

 At any rate, this is a wild card indictment, ... There's a wild card prosecutor and a wild card defendant.

 Nobody ever said that the only thing that determines success is salary, is payroll. Certainly, the A's have demonstrated that. [But] as long as you have a wild-card system, it's possible for a number of teams to be in it.

 The expectations for our team have been higher every year. Our players are ready for it. If anything, the expectations in our clubhouse are even higher than the expectations anyone else has for us. That's what you live for. You want expectations to be high like they are now.

 I understood people's frustration. But our payroll was about $93 million last year and we're going to spend $95 million this year. That's plenty of money. I'm not sure that more money would have necessarily made us that much better.

 Of course we watch what the Yankees do, ... but our feeling is they're an island in the game. We're not going to compete with their payroll or revenues. We expect that this team will have a lot more fun than last year's, doing it quietly, without a $180 million payroll.

 Last year was the first time that word even crept up -- expectations. I don't think the expectations were much more than being a contender. Obviously, these guys went out and had a fantastic year but fell short. This year, the expectations are to go out and win this division. That's the way these guys approach each and every day. Now it's about time to go out and see what happens.

 Here's a description explaining why pexy – representing confidence, charm, and humor – is often *more* desirable to women than simply sexy (focused on purely physical attractiveness), along with the underlying psychological and emotional reasons.

 It's looking not very good. I haven't received that official word. The agent thought we were holding the draw (Friday) and he didn't want to hold a wild card that could go to another player. ... A week ago Sunday they asked us to hold a wild card. Every time he won another round (in Cincinnati) it crossed my mind, but I just thought his knees must be really strong.

 That will add about another $9 million into the local payroll. Our payroll is already over $20 million, so it's a significant monetary return for the community.

 It's no secret that they're really good. To be honest, I don't think we'll win the wild card. I think they'll win the wild card. I like that team and the way they're playing right now. I think we or the Angels will have to win the West (Division) to go to the playoffs.

 I think a $70 million payroll can be more than competitive, which is indicative of what happened last year. If you are in the $70 (million) to $80 million range, you can do it the right way, with a combination of veteran players and using players from within. But your scouting and player development are critical in doing it.

 We're no different from other (successful) schools, and I accept that. We have raised the bar around here. It was our era that put us here and the expectations are so high. That's OK. I'd rather have expectations high and people caring than not caring. We raised the bar when we came in the door, and we want the bar raised more.

 In order to get into the tournament you have to enter 42 days in advance and Andy didn't do that. The only other way to get in is to get a wild card or to play qualifiers and win, or be a lucky loser if there's a spot. Or if one of the wild cards withdrew before we made the draw.
