Jermaine Dye Team Quotations

Last year was the best team I've played on as far as an all-around team. Maybe not the best players. But as far as a team in the clubhouse, on the field, pulling for each other, it was the best. That's why we were able to win.

Kenny Williams showed me on paper what the makeup of this team would be like. I always know that from being around this game, pitching and defense wins,

It gives your team a big boost. It not only helps the pitcher throw strikes, it takes pressure off the other guys to not try to do too much. We're rolling now and we have to keep it going.

That's the sign of a good team, ... If the opposing team gives you extra outs, you know you're good if you can go out there and build on it.

We're trying to win series. You feed off everything, and we're all doing well. It's an all-around team effort.

This is not necessarily a home run lineup, but we have guys who are strong enough to hit home runs. The guys are feeding off each other right now...and we're playing good team baseball.

A couple of guys could have got it. We all worked hard to do whatever we could to help this team win and guys came up with big hits in a lot of situations. And it's just special for me to be thought of as MVP.
