I actually think the wins in the minor leagues are more meaningful. You're developing prospects.

If you seriously aspire to be a manager in the big leagues, there is a baseball 'book' that one must learn. Alongside that book, you must practice Spanish. Of 25 players on each roster, sometimes there are between eight and 15 players who speak Spanish.

To me, there is no more conscientious umpire in the Major Leagues than Jim Joyce. He gives you a hellacious effort every time.

I don't think he had a meaningless RBI,

I was in the American League for 16, 17 years, and I think it's a really tough league to compete in.

I think he's going to start. Unless I go in (the clubhouse) and find out something that wasn't obvious, I expect him to start.
