Jason Bay Team Quotations

We need a pitcher to step up and be a stopper. A lot of good teams have that.

Those are the two best teams in the division. We'll find out where we stand.

A few guys on this team probably tried to do too much a few times, myself included.

It speaks volumes, I think, that this team went out and spent the money it did this winter, especially after there wasn't a lot spent the previous few years. I hope everybody realizes now that there are two ways to get better: One is to give up young talent in trades, which you don't want to do. The other is to spend money out of pocket to fill needs. We did it right.

The neat thing about this tournament is the nature of it, and how quick it is. A nice win here, you step it up in one game, and all of a sudden people take note, not just of the team but the players on it.
