Ken Rosenthal Quotations

I'm not going to vote for any of the current sluggers or pitchers on the first ballot. It's my way of protesting the use of steroids. Beyond the first ballot, I just don't know. I hope we'll become better informed.

Nobody's bigger than the game of baseball. You ask pitchers from 10-15-20 years ago. That's normal. Part of the game.

You can't equate the game we play to a war. Kellen Winslow said he's a soldier. No, he's not. This is not a war...not a good comparison.

For as many people as I quote-unquote lost respect from, I gained respect from a lot more. I know that's a fact.

The real debate isn't over National League MVP, but over which of Barry Bonds' seasons should be considered his finest. There's 2001, when he hit his record seventy-three home runs. There's 2002, when he hit .370 and won his first batting title. And now there's 2004, when the San Francisco Giants slugger is preparing to shatter his season record for on-base percentage, hitting for nearly as high an average as Ichiro and missing fewer pitches than ever.

Best advice is this: Work hard. Nothing is given to you.

Each time you decide to grow again, you realize you're starting at the bottom of another ladder.

all the people are on the same side of the rope.
