“Viz is another guy that I think is great with not only the Latino guys but he's also great for guys like me. Anybody can draw on his wealth of experience. They set a standard for the right way to play the game and the right way to conduct yourself in the clubhouse and on the field. Their example is very important.”
“I don't care how he pitches. He's out there and his mom just passed away. If he pitches great or not, it's not going to matter one bit to anybody in here.”
“People have been saying we have the best schedule for the wild-card race, but I don't know that's true, ... These guys are tough, and we still have to play the game. Anything can happen, and obviously tonight Roger didn't have his best stuff, and they capitalized on it and we weren't able to stay in the game.”
“It's a very high honor, ... I remember when I was being recruited to go there and they take you through the hall of honor and see all the guys' pictures and stuff. It doesn't even cross your mind then that one day you'll have your picture up there.”
“I feel like Wandy's thrown the ball really well the whole year, ... I know he's had a few rough starts, but you can't expect a rookie to come up and give the innings he's given us.”
“There's not another starting rotation that measures up to ours. And then you get to the back part of the game, with (Brad) Lidge. That's who we are. We don't outslug teams; we outpitch them.”
