We just have to go there like 2006. Not 2005, because 2005 is over.

Two months ago everybody wanted to kill this kid and get him out of town because he was pitching horrible,

I believe in pitching. You can put a little league team on the field to catch the ball. With the pitching staff they have, they’ve still got a chance.

Mentally we need guys to show every time, … I don’t know if Marte is ready to do that for the team. I’m going to talk to Kenny, I’m going to talk to (Marte) and...

If you play Boston or New York and you pitch good, you have a chance. This team, if you pitch good, you don’t have a chance because somebody will steal a base, somebody will move...

If Uribe feels comfortable and does what he is supposed to do in the second spot in the lineup, I think our ball club will be better offensively.

We need him to get back to the form he was last year. We know he can do that.

Freddy was not on today. He got behind in counts and when your not on against the Indians you will be hit.

I went out and talked to Freddy, about if he’s got enough,

I knew 100 percent, for sure. In Game 2, it was close. This play, anybody could see.

The reason is obvious,

If we are in situation where we are going to the playoffs and Freddy is struggling, we’ll think about moving him [out of the rotation]. Right now I still have faith in him, and think...

Everybody boos A.J. wherever he goes. He loves that because it pumps him up. I think every time they boo this kid, it makes him a better player.

I’m so happy for these kids. A lot of people started doubting us. Even we started doubting us. But then we started believing again, started playing good baseball again, and I like the way we’re...

That play could have cost the game. A ball on the line and a couple of runs are going to score. Ozuna has been playing well for us. He’s playing pretty good defense and doing...

Right now there’s still a lot of soreness in the finger. We have to see what decision we’re going to make, if you want to move somebody quicker before the rosters expand, or play with...

I feel that we have a better lineup than we’re showing. But we have been really struggling the last week and a half. No one in our lineup is swinging the bat well right now....

Garland threw the ball real poorly. He wasn’t throwing strikes. Today was one of those days he didn’t have it.

We just had horses— pitching. We didn’t pitch good.

Right when we needed it. This was a big game for the team. I don’t know what it means to him, his first major league win, but for the team, that’s a big win, huge.

This kid went from my last starter to No.1 in the playoffs for us, … If you told me in April that Contreras was going to be my ace and Bobby Jenks was going to...

The only time we didn’t execute was in the first game [of the ALCS],

It’s not easy when you play or work in one place that many years and all of a sudden you’re gone. Because it happened to me before, I’m not going to criticize Frank.

He threw the crap out of the ball for the first time this spring training. He had a lot of confidence he was the McCarthy we saw last year, and he was the McCarthy we...

This one is the best one. As long as we’ve been waiting [for a championship] … It’s something special.

He feels better. He should be ready [today]. He’s a tough kid. He just wants to play. I can use him to play defense if I need to.

You make a mistake and he’s going to hit it out of the ballpark.

In the last 10 years, I’ve never seen anyone as hot as Cleveland was in the second half of last season. Coming down the stretch, they weren’t just playing good. They were playing great. But...
