When you look at building on Jason Bay and Jack Wilson, those are two pretty good players to start with as far as character. That's a nice aspect of it. But the key is performance and strengthening ourselves up the middle.

That's one of the reasons you do these things, because you're trying to get ahead of that. We felt good about this deal. Jack's a good player and a good character guy.

I'm not going to lie to you. There were some times -- and I think everybody knows when that was because we had to move some players -- that I don't think our plan was working. We were locked into bad contracts and ... it was time for significant changes. Things are working much better now because I think we're working our plan better. Quite frankly, we've got better people in place to execute the plan, too.

We've been as good as anyone at financing our drafts since Dave took over. It's an important commitment, and I think you have to make that to your employees when you bring them in. I made this one to Dave.

As it always does, it will come down to starting pitching. I don't think you can discount a player because of youth.

A lot of people feel we have chance to turn the corner. We just need to go out to play.

He has the buy-in of the entire team. We couldn't have found a better person for the job with this group we have right now.

We are beginning to see the results of those efforts, as we see more homegrown talent at the major-league level.

Dave deserves to see this thing through.

We've progressed quite a bit since Dave took over (July 13, 2001). He's earned this extension.

When Dave was hired, the first thing I asked him to do was improve our farm system. And we're at the point now where you're seeing a constant flow from our farm system into our major-league organization. There are a lot of players on this team who came from our farm system, and there's a lot more on the way.

He understands that our scouting and player development system is the lifeblood of this ball club and the key to our sustained success. A few years ago, we set out to improve our farm system. We did, and continue to devote the necessary resources to that area of our organization. We are beginning to see the results of those efforts, as we see more homegrown talent at the major league level.

I think it's going to be a wide-open search. I think a lot of names will pop up.

All I'll say is this is Dave's decision ? he can entertain anyone he wants. I'm not going to try to sway him one way or another, ... I'm fine with what happened and that was a long time ago. Whoever Dave picks, we want someone who gives us the best chance to win.

There was concern there. I'm disappointed in some of the lack of improvement. Dave wanted to make sure we had the right manager in place so these players could continue to improve.
