Jo left me a few months ago for 10 days. I get this note: I'll come back when the real Ronnie comes back.

It's always a pleasure on a personal note for me to come back to Australia.

My real self is probably more creative and more frightening than any sort of drink or drug-induced state.

I go off into Dublin and two days later I'm spotted walking by the Liffey with a whole bunch of new friends.

People often get the wrong impression of Mick. The clever businessman is just one side of Mick. The other side is the same as the rest of us, a true rocker!

Let's see if he finishes on a good note. With the days off that we have and with the way we've watched our pitchers' pitch counts all year, I don't know how much of an opportunity he's going to get as far as starting is concerned. He'll get some work out of the bullpen. Or if we have an injury, he'll be the guy we put in there.
