I think that's something we'll deal with at the end of the season.

Joe has a great deal of trust in him. Joe has worked close with Ron for a number of years, and he's been talking to him for three years about replacing Mel when Mel decided to retire. This is the man he wanted.

deal fall far work
To be as far back as we were, to come back and fall short, it just wouldn't be right. We've had to deal with a lot this year, but we still have work to do.

The deal was done, but the paperwork didn't go through until 3:59, ... That's when the fax went through -- and I have proof of that.
blame brian credit deals gm gotten seeing stay tampa tired title work
I don't know if Brian will stay or leave, but I do know he's gotten awfully tired of seeing Tampa get credit for all the deals that work out and him getting the blame for all the ones that don't. It's like he's the GM in title only.
I think we're a better team. That's the hope, but you have to play it out.

I think Carl needed to say that more than I needed to hear it.

I respect the heck out of Kenny because he swings for the fences. He will do whatever it takes to help his team win, except cheat.

Johnny was a perfect fit for us. We had a big-time interest in him.

I was calling around looking for anybody who was available. I was desperate for pitching, and he was available. There wasn't anything about him we particularly liked other than that we could get him.
