I thought Torii was the Most Valuable Player in the American League when he got hurt ... He was performing at an incredibly high level on both sides of the ball.
I want to congratulate the Yankees ... They played an incredible series. They outplayed us and they deserved to win. At times we played good baseball. At times we shot ourselves in the foot. The Yankees are a team that you can’t give extra outs to.
We saw what happened last year in Philadelphia
This is very tough for us, it really stings ... But the bottom line is the Yankees played better than us. They beat us, and they deserve (to go to the World Series).

You make your decisions and you live with them. Obviously that's one that didn't work out ... As I said then and I think we've had some conversations since, you know, my heart said let John stay in there and pitch, and my head said try to turn Tex (Mark Teixeira) around. And that's what you get for list...
There's not a guy around that knows the Yankee team better than Joe Girardi
We should have never had a day off last Wednesday. We should never have three days off after the season ... You shouldn't even have two days off after the season. It just takes an advantage away for a deep team, which everybody feels very strongly is an asset. It takes that advantage away and I think th...
There's not a guy in this room [full of reporters] or a guy around that knows the Yankee team better than Joe Girardi ... Or a guy around that knows our team better than I do, or our coaching staff does. So you make decisions along those lines and you live with them. It's all good baseball discussion, t...
There’s not a guy in this room, there’s not a guy around that knows the Yankee team better than Joe Girardi ... I think ... there can’t be anybody around that knows the team better than I do or our staff does. So you make decisions along those lines and you have to live with them.
If you lose a starter -- either he warms up or throws a half-inning or two innings -- that really affects the outcome of a ballgame ... I know it’s a concern of ours and a concern of Major League Baseball’s. So we’ll have everything intact to go (today).
I think it benefits both Back home in sunny California, the Angels staved off elimination with a stirring comeback victory in Game 5 on Thursday night. Does the postponement Saturday stall their momentum? I don't think it has that much to do with it. Guys are ready ... I'm sure it's the same way in the ...
The challenge I think is the same wherever you're playing ... It's really going to be how we're playing the game. If we can bring all the things that we did in Game 5, all the things in Game 3 -- even Game 2 -- I think we played good baseball. If we can bring those things onto the field and maybe try to...
There is a huge difference in what we are doing right now in the lineup we are facing as opposed to the lineup we were facing in '02 with Barry Bonds in it
If I went with my heart, I would have left John in ... But my head said let's turn (Mark Teixeira) around. Make him hit from the right side so he would have to hit to the biggest part of the ballpark. (Lackey) might have had enough to get Tex out, but I thought to turn (Teixeira) around was the move.
If it was a one-run game, especially with some of the matchups coming up with Johnny Damon and (Mark Teixeira), we would go with Fuentes
What they've done is an incredible feat, not only to get there once but to repeat and get to the World Series ... We have so much on our plate. There is not too much attention to what we can pay to what is going on over there. We have a challenge in front of us, and that's what we're going to stay focus...
We talked about a lot of things, yeah ... I think with Juan, he's swinging the bat and got some big hits for us in Boston. He has the potential to break out.
Juan has been struggling a little bit, and we wanted to get a left-handed bat behind Kendry Morales ... Juan got some big hits in the Boston series. He has the potential to break out, so we want to stick with him.
There is no questioning what he's meant to that lineup through the Minnesota series and now our series ... He's as good as anybody has performed up to this point at any playoff. With the clutch hits, he's played terrific defence. He's doing every thing. We have to find a better way to contain him and to...
I can just think of Barry Bonds
