It's a lot of time, but he's a good player. He'll be all right.
It makes me feel very good. It really does. He's a good man. I like him. I understand him. I understand what he's after. I'm very happy to have him.
It's an incredible achievement, particularly when I remember that when I bought the Yankees, we had trouble drawing 1 million to the stadium. We have the greatest fans in the world.
They were both fine young men and great Yankees, and we are praying for their families and loved ones.
They were both fine men and great Yankees.
It was indeed the right thing to do.
I think about the next season right away.
As I've always said, the way New Yorkers back us we have to produce for them.
We're going to honor him and welcome him. We're going to give him a New York Yankees welcome.
When he gets with the team here, it will be fine. Count on A-Rod.
Our team played hard, but we let our fans down. We will do better.
They're a good team. They are not going to lose 100 games.
The whole coaching staff is the responsibility of Joe Torre.
We applaud the Red Sox for decisively dealing with this matter.
