add baseball best coaches good people phone reputation
I made the phone call. He's one of the best baseball people in the game. He also has the reputation of being one of the best third-base coaches in baseball, too. That's a pretty good combination to add to your staff.

It's great when you have a manager secure enough to want the best people.

We just tried to get the best staff possible. We both thought having people with managerial experience would be great.

Like every year, we try to put together the best staff possible; hopefully we've done that. We have a lot of experience, a lot of people our players can go to for help.
best continue felt inside intent relationship resolve
There is not one person inside this organization that didn't want to continue this relationship with Bernie Williams. We felt that, if he was willing, it was our intent to resolve it. I think it's best for everybody.
ado best judged required team
We're required to put the best team on the field, and we're going to be judged on those decisions. I think it's a lot ado about nothing. It's unfortunate.
ask ball best earlier explain played playing saw somehow team today turned
We're playing our best ball right now, ... The way we played earlier in the year, I can't explain it, I can't defend, it was inexcusable. But somehow we turned it around. Don't ask me, because I haven't got the answer, But we're a different team today than what you saw in May and June.
aggressive best interest prices priority within
I don't think it's in my best interest to say I have a No. 1 priority and here it is. We'll get very aggressive when we feel the prices come within something that makes sense.
change inevitable
I know we're better than what we showed, ... Change is ahead. It's inevitable in this game.
ahead asked guys knew option page question rather stay year
I knew (the option year of his contract) would be the first question you guys asked him. So I wanted to stay ahead of it and get on the same page with him, rather than play catch-up.
bigger enjoy everybody excited forward future great people work
Everybody is going to be a little nostalgic, not just the fans, but the people who work in this building. But then we're also excited about what the future brings. So it's a great balance. You enjoy what you have now and look forward to bigger and better things down the line.
boss heart soft spot
The Boss has always had a soft spot in his heart for Bernie Williams.

It was great to see him come out and throw with the stuff he had today. Obviously, when he's right, he's very, very difficult, so thankfully he was right on today.

It was just like, we came so close but we didn't do it -- but we did. I knew that we had the team that could go out and win a meet like this. We have a bunch of talented guys who work real hard.
