conversation good letting
Nothing official. Just a good conversation letting him know where we're at.
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.
good great
It will be good to have him back. He had a great tournament.
build good news today
We just want him right. He's a starter, so we need to build him back up to be a starter. But today was good news for me.
attracted good reasons relieve ron spot
One of the reasons we were attracted to Ron was that he's versatile. He can spot start, he can long relieve or be a situational lefty, all without complaint. That's attractive. We think he's a good fit.
baseball calling good hope love maybe
Maybe he will be calling me now. I hope so, he's a good baseball man. We'd love to have him.
ball chance confidence game good takes win
We have good confidence if Shawn Chacon takes the ball that we're going to have a chance, ... We'll be in the game and we'll have a chance to win it because he's done that well for us this year.
basically boss continue everybody good interested job move nice provides staying support system talked time tremendous valuable
Mel told me that he'd always be interested in staying around. I talked to the Boss about it. He thought it was a good idea. Mel thought it was a good idea. Everybody basically felt: Let's continue the relationship. Mel did a tremendous job here for a long time and provides a lot of valuable insight. So it's nice to have him as part of the support system as we move forward.
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.
great stuff thankfully throw
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.
bunch came close guys knew meet talented team win work
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.
