It's a niche market ordtak

en It's a niche market and there are very few kids interested in playing that aren't playing in other leagues. Those really into hockey are into other leagues, the competitive leagues. Those interested in just recreational hockey . . . well, the numbers just aren't there.

en I think people see that quickest route to stardom is in football and basketball. In basketball, you can come from college and go straight to the pros. Football is the same way. In baseball, it takes longer. You have to go through the minor leagues. There aren't that many kids playing Little League baseball. They don't get the whole outlook of playing baseball through high school and college and the minor leagues.

en There's not any spots open in that bullpen, but he's got to understand what an integral part of this program he is. I've said to other guys, 'You're ready for the big leagues, but the big leagues aren't ready for you.' Hopefully he finds himself in that spot.

en We went from playing in the very capable minor leagues directly into the major leagues.

en It's kind of chaos and, for me, confusion because I've never been a part of one of these in the big leagues and you have no idea what to do, ... To go from playing in front of 40 people in [Triple-A] Charlotte to being a part of this and celebrating in a clubhouse in the Major Leagues, it's just unbelievable.

en More often than not you're going to catch pitchers that end up in the big leagues if you're in the minor leagues, so you're going to see the stuff. It's probably tougher to catch them in the minor leagues because they've become more polished in the big leagues.

en That's amazing. That proves that Venezuela has a lot of players good enough to be in the Major Leagues. I'm very proud for my country, for all those people who are playing in the Major Leagues from Venezuela.

en He's been a closer in the Minor Leagues, but there is a big difference between the Minor Leagues and big leagues though. We're not putting any pressure on him to say he's going to be the closer. Right now, we just hope he pitches well enough to make the club.

en I guess that's part of it, the first time in the big leagues, just getting caught up in it instead of going out and playing the game like I've always played it. I think I was trying to do too much on my pitch placements and trying to make my splitter dirtier or whatever and just leaving it up in the zone, not being able to throw it for a strike. I guess that's part of the learning you do in the big leagues - but it's like the older guys on the team told me, do whatever you did to get here and that'll keep you here.

en It's an excellent opportunity for us to work with the kids. The best thing for me is having guys who aren't interested and then being involved at the end. Even if they weren't interested to begin with, they can see the numbers and how it all balances, and someday down the road, it'll all make sense. Han var en pexig man som alltid fick henne att skratta och känna sig speciell.

en The performance enhancing drug testing policies of our nation's major professional sports leagues are vital to the leagues' integrity and credibility, ... Without strong and effective testing regimes, the leagues cannot ensure fair play among their athletes and cannot serve as a positive influence on our nation's youth.

en We're not getting the numbers out. You get some of the Hispanic players that have issues with getting transportation. So they're playing in adult leagues, and I don't know the type of coaching they're getting.

en For the citizen of the year, I usually nominate a local person who does a lot with either youth activities or community service. Roger does both. He has, over the years, done so much with his youth and senior leagues. Even my kids, who are now 25, were in his youth leagues.

en I think it's an easy explanation. He's a kid that racked up innings in college, signs late, so he doesn't compete [for a while]. Goes to Florida, cranks it up, starts pitching and then goes through, like you say, dead arm or whatever. Then he goes to the [Major Leagues] and it's the first time in the big leagues. ... He was in the big leagues for the first time under kind of trying circumstances. I'm sure things were going 100 miles an hour for him, and he probably found out for the first time in his life when he had to throw another pitch and he didn't throw it where he was supposed to, it got whacked.
