FastSaying

I know it's only spring training. But if you're not careful and you get greedy, or if you're pushed up against the wall because of the situation, you can make a major mistake. What I'm afraid about is the guys that are here are going to play too many innings. And this early on, that could be a disaster.

We stunk. The whole ball of wax was lackluster. It's been going on here before and it's not going to happen. . . . They were ready to get on the plane and go to Oakland. If we won, it was OK. If we lost, it was OK. And that's not good enough.
