I'm a great believer in the character of the club. To me, character has a lot to do with how you compete. That creates urgency and toughness. That elevates the talent that you have.

The game has never seen a better catcher than YADIER MOLINA.

In the end, as a manager or coach, you have to keep your heart pure and do your best as a manager or a coach.

The thing I learned when I was playing was that your best way of winning was to make it difficult for the other team to score in the last three innings.

I'm very distressed that the report was leaked early so that the initial headline said 'dismissed, fired.' That's 180 degrees from the arrangement we have potentially.

Anything that disturbs your comfort factor is good for you.

Even when you have three strikes, you're still not out. There is always something else you can do.
