en I was harshly criticized for the decision to make Eric Gagne a closer,

en Any closer, if you pitch long enough, you're going to face some failure. He was able to bounce back from it as good as anybody. I hope the same is true for myself. I feel it will be. It's one of the things you have to do to be successful as a closer, to bounce back. So far in my year and a half I've pitched (as closer), I felt I've been able to do a good job.

en He's money when it comes to the ninth inning. There's no closer out there that's like him. It's really hard to compare a guy like Wagner to anybody else. With him, it's like playing eight innings. It's hard to find any closer like him.

If Gagne's healthy, he's going to be the closer and I'm not. We don't talk about it. We have a lot of other things to talk about.

en We need to call the [Los Angeles] Dodgers and see if we can get [Eric] Gagne, the guy with 66 saves. You go eight and one-third, you have to get the last two guys out. We were unable to do that and I know it's irritating and disgusting to our football team.

en I don't know, ... I don't know if he'll make a good closer. I would say he has the stuff to make a good closer, but does he have the command? I don't know. That remains to be seen.
