brand carry football happened job last lost matter mean night players remind wait week whether won
Whether you won or lost the night before, it's a brand new game. It' s my job and my coaches' job to remind the players that no matter what happened last night, it doesn't mean anything today. This is not like football where you have to wait one week to recover. You just have to get up every day and fight. If you carry it over, you're a loser.

It's an amazing job this kid did over the last year and a half, ... This kid came in with a lot of problems, mechanics and keeping his pitches down.

He's my true leader, ... When I got this job and people say he was good in the clubhouse, he was different then, he's a selfish player. But I got this job for two years and he's the best thing I have.

We have to compete against the world champions. We never did as a White Sox organization in the last 80 years or whatever it is, we never did anything to earn that respect.

We will sit down and talk and right now we're not in a six-man rotation, ... It's not easy, but it will be a real interesting talk. Maybe the guys want to pitch with five days' rest and not four and we can sneak him in and hopefully he can pitch the way he is.

We had the bases loaded and we should have won the game right there. The hitters got to be better in the stretch. It's not going to be easy.
