He gives you a pretty good chance to win games every time he goes out there. That's what you want. |
He wants to be the center fielder but at the same time this deal gives us an opportunity to experiment with other players, too. Brady doesn't have to look over his shoulder wondering whether we're doing it because we're going to dump him. |
He was our biggest surprise by far. I can't say we knew that was going to happen. |
He'll put a little pressure on himself, but not to the point where he'll get frustrated. But you know what? This kid likes pressure. |
He's a good, instinctive base-runner. We're not blessed with a lot of speed. In the end, I think you'll see that Corey Hart may be our best base-runner. |
He's a smart guy. It's not entirely surprising. |
He's on his own program. This kid's a competitor. He'll take the ball and give it his best. |
His work ethic, leadership skills and passion for the Brewers fans . . . confirmed to us that this was the right thing to do. |

I don't anticipate anything happening. When somebody asks about one of our players I always say, 'Make a proposal.' They haven't gotten back to me. |
I don't know if the players recognize it because none of the players were here the last 12 years. They want to go out and win every game. I would bet that some of them keep hearing about it and they wonder what we're all talking about. |
I figured this probably would be our highest (payroll). It's an indication that we have more talent. |
I have to be open-minded to everything and any phone call. We really don't know what we're doing there. We're not going to drive that. We don't have to move Lyle. Some other ball club is going to have to make the call to us. |
I kind of rolled my eyes. We did need left-handers. It was a very low-risk situation. I knew Justin would work hard and he'd be honest with us. After all he has been through, I have a fondness for his character. |
I really do think that Robin coming back to us is an indication we have a chance. I don't think he would, otherwise. From that standpoint, we think we're going into it with a chance. |
