Jerry Coleman was the kind of player who made me proud to wear the pinstripes.

Stress is something that is sort of out of your control. You get stressed out over looking at the finish line. Stress is something that is an outside thing. Stress is an anxiety.

When you take a job, you don't just accept the pats on the back. You have to accept the kicks in the pants.

It's my job that if somebody wants to have a discussion about something, I'm certainly sensitive to that, and I'm willing to do it.

Years ago, you never concerned yourself with pitch counts. Now, with statistics telling you that between this number and that number bad things happen to this particular pitcher, you have to pay attention to it. The bullpen has become a huge part of what happens now.

Baseball has always been filled with negative statistics.

I am deeply saddened and shocked at the loss of umpire Wally Bell.
