Amazing Quotes
We appreciate the way the fans have turned out this year. But you have an empty feeling in your stomach when you come out and see half of the ballpark empty. The players earned the people to be watching. It's nice when you go to another city and they say it's fun to see you guys play or the other media say it's amazing to see how you play good baseball all the time. And then you come to Chicago and you feel like you are missing something. You feel like we've done what we have to do to bring people to the ballpark.

Cannot Quotes
But don't forget this is business. In this business, you cannot think with your heart. You have to think with your brains. Usually when you think with your brains, a lot of people are going to be disappointed. You think with your heart in this business, you're not going to have success.
-
Booing Quotes
I feel proud. It's not like I'm criticizing the people that were booing because when you go from a 15-game lead to one or two, obviously they do it. But when you win that many games and people keep criticizing and criticizing, second doubts and second guessing, it takes the fun away from the people. To me this is a release and a satisfaction.

Baseball Quotes
He helps us in the field. But he helps this team more in the clubhouse, in the hotels, in the bus, in the planes. You look around baseball and one of the people they don't say anything negative about is Jim Thome. They love the way he respects the game and treats his fans and teammates.

Against Quotes
I think it's going to be a real attractive and weird World Series because you've got two teams that aren't supposed to be there. You're not going to see the big-name franchises. Nothing against them. I think it's just good for baseball, these two franchises that have never been there -- one the first time ever, the other people forget when was the last time.

Brought Quotes
People are really excited, and they should be. It's great for the city and great for the fans who have waited so many years. We've brought this little smile back to their faces. They feel proud about this team because there have been a lot of disappointing years in the past and a lot of negativity about us and this organization.

Ball Quotes
Was I real upset about it? Yes. Sometimes you have to be careful with who you listen to. Sometimes you listen to the people that think it's right for them and forget about the kid. Winter ball is over, and I think they punished him for that. I'm not going to take anything away from this kid to make the club.
-
Almost Quotes
You get to the playoffs you got to win 11 games. In the regular season, you win 99 and go to the wire and almost lose. The way we played all year long it was like a playoff game every day. ... I talked to the guys. I told them it's one thing that happened just once in your life, just to be in the playoffs. Some people play a lot of years in this game and never have this opportunity.

Against Quotes
Everybody is chasing us, everybody wants to play good against us. No doubt about it. We have to take the same approach as we have in the past. We have to play the game the way we've always played the game. Don't believe the hype. You have to go there and play the game and not worry about what people think.
-
Beauty Quotes
People see what he does for us on the field, but what they don't see is what he does for our team in the dugout, in the clubhouse, in the hotels and on the airplanes. The beauty of him is that he pushes his teammates to be better. He's always up cheering and supporting them. He's not a selfish player.
-
Brought Quotes
This kid's been great, ... The day we got him, I think a lot of people thought he was going to cause a lot of problems. The only thing A.J.'s brought here is good things. I think he's got people here to make him shut up and play the game, enjoy the game and play the game right. A lot of people misunderstand this kid. If we think he's doing things he shouldn't be, we let him know.
-
Believe Quotes
I had to show him I had faith in him and make him believe we trust him. The thing about Jose is he didn't want to let people down. When he signed the big contract, people talked about how much money he made and how he should win every game. When you go to the mound and think, 'I have to do good,' obviously you're going to fail.
-
Alex Quotes
Alex is not a hypocrite. I was just trying to say he doesn't have to please people. He doesn't have to make people from the United States or from the Dominican Republic or from Venezuela happy. When you do that, you sound like you are a hypocrite. You say, 'Hey I want to play for the United States and that's the team I belong on,' move on and that's it.
