In our office, I remember people quickly took him seriously. He fit right in here. He's a pretty special guy.

We wanted to give him some meaty projects. Unfortunately, he got traded. We were trying to give him some projects he could sink his teeth into when he got traded.

I think the selection is great. I think he's going to do a great job and I know his work ethic, and that will go into it.

We're going to be in a class room a little bit in Spring Training to get it right. If we don't have it right, we're going to get it right. If it takes me staying after school with Chris to work on things, then that's what we're going to do.

I expected something to happen. I think he's hurt. You can almost hear it when he speaks.

No, Frank never has a point. He's just upset that he's not here anymore.

The organization has been good to Frank. He played a big part in White Sox history, and they've acknowledged that. But enough is enough. Everyone's career ends, and you have to move on. For a decade, he was the best right-handed hitter I've ever seen. But fame is fleeting. [The game of baseball] is huge business.

Maybe it made him realize he had to lose weight to get his swing back and to take pressure off his foot.

I meant one of these days.
