To get this done went a little closer than I had hoped. This is huge for us. I know, for me, there's certainly going to be a sense of comfort in that ninth inning now that we have Trevor back.

Braz threw well. We haven't determined what the roster is yet, but he certainly is pitching very well and making it difficult on what we're going to do here.

It's not an all-important thing to us, but there is some pride involved. We certainly didn't want to finish this year going into the postseason under .500 and have that stigma on us. More importantly, we played good baseball.

I think Mike's got something to prove. Obviously in New York they tried to make him do the transition to first. He could've signed with an American League team and been a (designated hitter). It certainly would've been a lot easier. But he likes to be involved with the game, he likes catching. He has a passion for it.

I certainly enjoyed having Grady here on the staff. He was a big help to me. I'm glad he got another opportunity to manage.
