We're finished talking. I mean, there's nothing else to talk about. Actual love lost I mean, basically there's not much love there over the last five years. So, you know, we're just moving forward.
We're not going to worry about results. We'll worry about the approach.
Volunteering gives balance to my retirement. You can only play golf and tennis so many hours in the day.
You don't need a special talent. You just need to be a good listener. It is so simple and can make a big difference in a child's life.
They don't have sense enough to move that before it starts rotting.
This means everything to Chicago. If they want a World Series championship, they've got it.
Last year, I came back too early. This year, I'm following orders and taking it one day at a time. I want to be ready on April 3.
I saw a couple of pitches and slowed everything down and hit the ball hard. I was embarrassed my first time up, but the nice thing about baseball is you can turn it around the next time.
I want to thank these guys for pulling my big butt across this finish line.
I was a little rusty. Wash had a little quicker tempo than I'm used to having. But we're ahead of the curve right now. The goal is still April 1.
He was saying how loaded this team is and how tough it is finding at-bats for everyone. The guy who's swinging the hot bat will probably decide things a lot, but I told him that playing two out of every three games or something like that is fine with me. Whatever he needs to do to keep guys fresh.
He knows how to pitch to the fat part of the ballpark.
We talked. But they didn't think I could hold up on the field turf, that's really what it came down to. With an injury like this, it's not ideal playing on an artificial turf surface.
We've got to try and do something with this, because it's getting to the point where it's getting really frustrating. This is excruciating. After I run, it's just really, really sore. I ran the other day (Friday), and I ran hard, and it was really sore. I don't know what we're going to do now. Hopefully, we'll come up with something.
