 The details really weren't that big of a deal from a contractual standpoint. Just a couple of minor details. ... This is ultimately what we wanted to accomplish at the end of the season. |
| The goal, ... is competitive balance. If there is more competitive balance over the course of this year, I think that will signal that it's a step in the right direction. I'm confident that it will be. |
| The perfect guy either might not be out there or beyond our (financial) means. |
| There are no hard feelings whatsoever. This is part of the business. |
| There are very few winters we're going to go, 'Hey, we're set' a day after the season. That being said, this is not going to be nearly as traumatic and exciting as it was last winter. |
| There was a real sense of determination in talking to him. You could get carried away with superlatives with Frank Thomas. Arguably, he is one of the greatest offensive players of his generation. |
| This guy probably represents nirvana for us from an offensive standpoint. We see him as an incredible acquisition. |
| This guy's skill level and ability is undeniable. Frank Thomas is a presence. |
| This is a guy whose skill level and his presence in a lineup is undeniable. Even last year, if you look at the impact he had in the brief time he played, his skills are still there. Frank Thomas is a presence. |
| This is the first time since I've been here that we haven't spent the off-season replacing what we've lost. We felt like we were very competitive last year. . . . In particular, when we were healthy, it was a very, very good team. So the idea that we were adding to this group . . . it's a first for us since I've been here as the general manager. |
| This is ultimately what we were trying to do during the season and in the days after it. Unfortunately we weren't able to do that and we parted ways last week. This is the outcome we wanted. |
| This whole issue didn't sneak up on us. It's disappointing we couldn't come to a conclusion that was satisfactory. |
| We had a little bit of a logjam (on a one-year deal), and this was a creative way to bring it to a conclusion. We didn't want it to drag on. |
| We have four very good rookies, but at the risk of saying it before the season is over, it would be pretty tough to find an explanation for choosing somebody else. |
| We offered a three-year deal with a club option and they countered with a three-year deal without a club option. I don't think we were ever going to be able to bridge the gap. It was a significant gap. |
