Do I use VORP? I may be using it and not even know it, and if I am, it's nobody's business. There are a lot of different criteria in judging players. I think I use, um, esoteric qualitative mathematical review times five. That's one of them.

I told [McCourt] the season is like a kaleidoscope. Every day it changes one degree and the picture is different.

The chance to be a general manager in major-league baseball and for a franchise as storied as this one, probably as storied as the Giants, is great.

The more experienced you are, the better off you are.

I've learned to never expect or require performances that exceed the player's ability. If they just equal their ability, that's what you want.
