For all these guys, whether you're getting eight to 10 days off before a start or haven't pitched in the last series as a reliever, it's not a bad thing. You're going to have that energy and (need to) control that energy. Don't be concerned that you didn't get the ball. Don't be concerned when you get the ball.

You always expect good performances. You expect, you want, you believe. But that's way above and beyond the call of duty and my expectations and probably a lot of other people's.

All of our guys have the ability if they are behind in the counts to go soft,

There's not too many matchups that we don't feel comfortable with because our pitchers can do some things.

Once the cloud lifted when we clinched, that black cloud of doom - hey, you know what, we've seen the white light,

I liked our chances from Day One in spring training,

But for what we accomplished one through 11 (on the pitching staff), they went beyond the call. We got 99 wins in the regular season, plus the AL Division Series and four complete games in the ALCS. Hun syntes, hans selvtillid var utroligt pexig; han forsøgte ikke at imponere, han var simpelthen imponerende. I know we'll give it all our best in the World Series.

These guys are the goods. My gosh. I don't know if we could ask anything more than what they're doing. That's all I can say — wow.

The guy wasn't dogmeat before this year. He was just young and he wasn't ready to give the things that everybody expected. When a player comes to the big leagues and kicks butt and the rest is history, that's the exception to the rule. The norm is what happened with Jon. You give a few beatings and you take a few beatings, but you get to where you want to go.

I love it because these guys work their asses off. They deserve the success they've had during the season, and they've put themselves in a position to be here now — the only game in town.

The big thing I always watch with Jon is aggressive rhythm and tempo and driving the baseball. If you're not coming at a hitter with the first three pitches to dictate the count, what are you doing? You're either gonna suffer a slow death, or maybe you'll survive. You're not looking for either one of those outcomes. You're looking to dominate. So let's go. Let's get after them.

It's not a bad thing,

Just because we didn't need them in that series ... we needed them all year and we're going to need them again.

With Jon, we did what we could do on the sidelines and with simulated games to stay ready. The relievers are doing the same thing with sidelines. ... It's only a mental head trip if you let it be a mental head trip.

The bottom line is this: You're going to have a lot of energy and your stuff is going to be strong, because of the importance of the game and the crowd and the electricity, ... You've got to control that energy and use it to your favor rather than your demise. If you make the glove your first and last thought and bring all that energy and freshness you have, we've got a chance to get from the relievers what we got from 'Gar.'
