Johnny Damon Team Quotations

We're not happy. We felt like we had a good enough team this season to win it all. We got to the playoffs, which is the first step. We just couldn't put anything together in this series.

I was starting to feel the groove again, and then I had this minor setback, ... But I'm not going to feel dissuaded by my performance. As long as the team wins, that's OK. Unfortunately, they seem to coincide.

I am finally healthy, I can honestly say that now. My shoulder's not bothering me. So now I'm not walking around with a scowl on my face like I've been for the past month or so. I'm happy and excited about this weekend, and may the best team win.

I can't say we're happy about the situation. But we'll be all right. I think we have a good-enough team to win.

Hitting with runners in scoring position, that's what we need to do to win. It was a great team win.

It got twisted around. I just said I'd do whatever the team asked me to do. I just want to help the team win.

My time in Boston was great. But now I'm here playing for the greatest franchise in the world. The team with the most championships.

I wish I had more hits and runs and more wins for this team. It comes in time. I understand it's a game and some are going to be better than others. Hopefully for this team there's a lot of better days to come.

We enjoy being around everybody because we know we have a special team and we know those four losses are not going to happen much this year, four in a row. We know we're going to bounce back from the losing streak and move forward.

To me, he looks like the player he was in Oakland. He's hitting for average and power. It's great to see because he can carry a team when he's on like that.

This team really wanted me. I'm going to go out there and run through walls for them, and hit and score lots of runs and bring another championship to New York.

This team puts itself in a position to win year in and year out. That is something that entices you as a player. If there is a weak link, there will not be a weak link much longer because they are going to go out and get the best player to help them win.

Everyone, when they talk about our team they talk about your offense. Our pitchers are capable of going out there and throwing good games.

There's no panic, we know we're a good team. No way we thought we'd be in this situation, 1-4, but this team can build a lot of wins in a row.

I've been having a blast. Everybody on the team has been great to me. I haven't changed anything, I'm just playing for a different team.

That's what we needed to do. A great team win.

That team runs on Bobby Crosby being healthy. This guy is amazing. He's got amazing pop in his bat, he plays amazing defense. If he's healthy, they could go a long way. He's the key.

This place is magical and the team that we had here was very special, I know that with my personality I can pretty much be happy anywhere.

They're a team that's going to be very scary. If their pitching stays healthy, they're going to be very, very good.

It's the world bragging rights. And I'm proud to represent Team USA.

It's ours to lose. We got a good enough team to get there.

Derek Jeter picked up the whole team with one swing of the bat. It's definitely going to be much easier for me to sleep.

That's old news now. I've had this new team for a long time, almost four months, so it doesn't matter. I think both sides are pretty over it. It's time to get ready for the baseball season.

It's very important to be a part of a team, and I've always been able to mix well with every team I've been on.

It's tough facing guys you've never faced, that your team has never faced.

There was a mystery team that was offering more years and more guaranteed money, but they could not guarantee winning like the New York Yankees can. That's the biggest reason why I'm here because we will win.

I'm going to follow the lead of a lot of these guys who have been here before, but everyone knows the type of guy I am. . . . I've always been able to mix with whatever team I've been on and I've been able to enjoy every team I've been on.

I'm excited about playing in front of the fans who, over the years, have come to know me as a player on another team. Now they get to see me for 81 days at Yankee Stadium, they get to see how I approach the game, my love for the game and the way I'm going to help this team win.

I mix in well with any team I am on. The guys here have made me feel very comfortable already.

I guess he felt pretty confident with his team back.

I don't think too many people give us credit because of that Dominican team. The U.S. team will be well represented.

What we really need is for me to get hot and stay hot. When I go, this team really takes off.

There's not too many teams that can succeed on and off the field together.
