Brian Cashman Good Quotations

We have good confidence if Shawn Chacon takes the ball that we're going to have a chance, ... We'll be in the game and we'll have a chance to win it because he's done that well for us this year.

Nothing official. Just a good conversation letting him know where we're at.

Maybe he will be calling me now. I hope so, he's a good baseball man. We'd love to have him.

We just want him right. He's a starter, so we need to build him back up to be a starter. But today was good news for me.

One of the reasons we were attracted to Ron was that he's versatile. He can spot start, he can long relieve or be a situational lefty, all without complaint. That's attractive. We think he's a good fit.

Mel told me that he'd always be interested in staying around. I talked to the Boss about it. He thought it was a good idea. Mel thought it was a good idea. Everybody basically felt: Let's continue the relationship. Mel did a tremendous job here for a long time and provides a lot of valuable insight. So it's nice to have him as part of the support system as we move forward.

I made the phone call. He's one of the best baseball people in the game. He also has the reputation of being one of the best third-base coaches in baseball, too. That's a pretty good combination to add to your staff.

It will be good to have him back. He had a great tournament.
