We were not very good on the mound. That was the story.

We can't look at the standings. If we play the way we are capable of playing, we will reach our goal.

I wouldn't say we're concerned, but ... his command was off and sometimes that's a sign of weariness, ... He's in uncharted waters.

It makes sense to have [Guerrero] ahead of Garret, but that has failed to work out over the past couple of months, especially for Garret. This might help out some things.

If he helps us pitch three or four games and we win, it will keep the bullpen continuity, ... It carries a lot more weight than if he were to pitch one game on Wednesday.

A big night for him. He deserved it. He played hard here. He flew under the radar, with A-Rod and Griffey and Randy Johnson, but as far as that team's success, if you're going to point to one guy, you're going to point to Danny Wilson.

This is out of the blue. Everything you could have messed up, we messed up out there. These guys have played terrific defense all year, so it's very uncharacteristic.

It's not anywhere near what he did three months ago, where he missed that much time.

The way he carried himself on the field, the little things he did made a difference in what his pitchers could do. He was terrific.
