Quotes by Emil Brown
You can't plan on hitting the ball soft. He threw it soft, so I hit it soft. They were catching the hard ones anyway.
I came in after it like it was a low line drive, as opposed to a ball that kept carrying.
If I lost my case, I wasn't going to lose any sleep over it. Winning it worked out for me. I've got a little extra money. My goal is not winning the arbitration case but to be prepared for this season.
I didn't hear about it until this morning. I'm going to call him this afternoon. I hope he's OK.
I don't know how to answer that. Even if you have two good years, you've got to do a third. If you have three, you have to do it four. I've got to prove I can do it again, that the Royals did not catch lightning in a bottle or that it was a fluke. I don't think so, but there will always be questions.
I'll bet they felt the same way about Ibanez when he came here, ... So much for that fourth outfielder theory.
I'm not going to say I have a chip on my shoulder. I'm not even thinking about last year. I can't wait to get it (2006) started.
