Anyone who says that is a liar. |
But he's been great. He's fit right in. He's one of the guys who has come up big for us. |
For me, it's dependent upon the guy's history. For a pitcher, always. Always for a pitcher. I don't take chances too much with guys who have physical issues, particularly in the shoulder area. I don't like to touch guys with shoulder problems. |
Generations of people have not seen us get to this level. I have personally carried that weight on my shoulders, to the degree it's probably not healthy. |
Give me a team of overachievers and let's see what happens. |
Half of our bullpen drives pickup trucks, ... They go hunting. They don't go to South Beach on their off days. |
He started out slow this spring, but I had to remind everybody that he was playing at 3 o'clock in the morning (Japan time), |
He's an idiot. He's selfish. That's why we don't miss him. |
He's an idiot. He's selfish. That's why we don't miss him. And we've held it in for far too long. And if you go out there and look long and hard enough, you'll find particulars. But I've got something to say directly to him. And I'm holding back as much as I can because, unlike him, I'll say it man-to-man, face-to-face. |
He's an Oakland A's problem. He needs to be concerned about Oakland. I don't even know why I'm talking about (the) guy. Play two or three games in a row first before you start popping off. |
He's nasty, with a mean streak, ... I got a hit off him in Boston and he gave me a look like 'You got a hit???' I looked right back at him like 'Yeah, I did.' I think Roger's tougher now than when he was younger because now he's got that split-finger. I think that's why he's still pitching. |

He's not going to do that, and we don't miss him, by the way. And if you go out there and ask any one of my players or staff members, we don't miss him. We don't miss the attitude; we don't miss the whining. We don't miss it. Good riddance. See you later. |
He?s an idiot. He?s selfish. That?s why we don?t miss him. |
Hey, I've got a guy, ... I know I'm at the budget, but I've got a guy who will fit into the two hole and play second base and it will really round out the club. And, oh, by the way, I haven't seen this guy play live. But I've got a bunch of video. I'm dizzy from breaking it down over the past two weeks. |
