Terry Francona Quotes

«It wasn't strange. I think it's our responsibility to make sure it's not. You come in that (locker) room and you're ?us.' It doesn't take very long. It's like I've known Mike Lowell for years. We're good at that. Barriers come down and make people feel comfortable.»
«We lost good people. We got good people. We just have to play good.»
«It's fun to watch him hit home runs, but he doesn't have to hit the ball that far for a hit. I was pleased with his last at-bat. He stayed in the strike zone. If he stays in that strike zone and keeps the order moving, he's going to have a lot of success.»
«I fought for (Myers' acquisition) hard but we started getting in a situation where we thought we had to carry 12 when we couldn't carry 12. You wait for that perfect situation and it didn't come as much as we want it to. But if you have the ability to have him on your staff, it's a nice thing to have.»
«I don't know. If he wants to just take off every game, he could get 30 easy. But we don't want him to be 30-for-60.»
«I'm not too pleased about it. Derek got hit with a split (finger fastball). We knew it, they knew. Then Mike got hit in the ribs.»
«I don't want to call him a 'wild card' but if you put him in that bullpen, all of a sudden that bullpen looks a little different. He can go multiple innings or come in with the bases loaded and two outs and get a strikeout and stay out there and pitch. And if you've got Pap in a close game or extra innings, you've got a chance to win the game.»
«I think he deserves my confidence because he has done it and he has done it about as good as anyone in baseball. I know the history of last year but this isn't last year.»
«He has the ability to pitch one or two innings. He can throttle it up a little bit. Say he doesn't have a pitch working that day. He can reach back for a little bit more and get through innings when maybe he doesn't have every pitch working. But he competes well. He's learning how to sink the ball. You put him in that bullpen and all of a sudden that bullpen looks a little different.»
«I think he's going to be pretty successful. He had a couple outings that might have skewed some of those numbers. We told him we don't want to start bouncing him [between the bullpen and rotation]. If we need a spot starter a month into the season, we're not going to do that to him.»
