I hope they keep the team somewhat intact, ... I think most of us deserve another year --another chance. I think we probably could use someone like a dominant No. 1 starting pitcher, but beyond that I don't know what the hell to say about what we should do.

The difference in the game was that we pressed in the second half.

Yeah, I keep track of all the home runs I give up, ... and I'll ask you: Where are some of these guys who hit them? Not in the game, or broke down, that's where.

It took a lot of energy to come back from such a large deficit. I think we just ran out of gas.

[Another option, although many players are reluctant to use it, is to have ballpark security personnel remove abusive fans.] I don't like kicking fans out, because they paid money to get in, ... But if I came to their work and swore at them and talked about their moms, that isn't good.

They just out-worked and out-hustled us.

Our press at the start of the second half caused Blue Mountain to turn the ball over and gave us some easy baskets.

No matter what, ... you always try to win. This is when you have to bear down and challenge yourself.

We have to get better in the mental aspects of the game, ... That's true for both the pitchers and hitters. The pitchers can't be giving up hits on 0-2 counts like we have, and the hitters have to find a way to get the runner over when he's on second with no outs.
