It was a good ordsprog

It was a good year to be a free agent as a pitcher. There was a lot of teams seeking pitching. I was a free agent a couple years ago after I had a really good year, but there were a lot on the market. This year there wasn't very many out there, so everybody's stock rose.

I was tired of being on one-year contracts. It was nice to have a good year in a free-agent year and be able to get a longer deal. It's made me more confident and mentally got me back to where I was a couple of years ago.

I think we need to sit back and reflect on this year and see where we want to go. But Reggie's a free agent ... So outfield would obviously be an area we'll have to address. We've got a couple free agent pitchers, so we have to look at that, too.

I look for him to have a monster year. There are a lot of things going his way. He's going into his free agent year. It's his second year here. He's got some good guys around him in the lineup who should take some pressure off of him.

Cliff had a good year last year, and this is a free agent year. You won't hear that from him, though. He is so team-oriented.

What this amounts to is they decided to pay $1 million and not add three years to his contract, so this is his last year. At the end of this year, Steve will be a free agent.

There are 16 teams where their closer spot is up in the air right now. It's a pretty good year to be a free-agent closer.

Some teams are going to regret [the long-term free agent] deals in a few years. The salary cap could go down next year. That would put some teams in quite a bind. We're committed to playing our young players next season.

I made one last call to [agent] Craig Landis [on Tuesday], and obviously we had gone down some roads to see what our options were and Jon stepped up. He made a statement about who he is about. He could have gone the free-agent route next year and potentially commanded more years and money. This shows that was less of a concern than him wanting to be here.

Someone told me a long time ago a good test in situations like this, ... You ask the guy, 'If this was your free agent year, when could you play?'

It was not an optimum year for it. The free-agent pool was not deep where we needed it. But it was good at the very top and we do feel we siphoned off some of that when we signed Jarrod.

You could almost see it coming. When it rains it pours. Granted, I'm pitching well and my ERA is dropping, but you want wins. Everybody knows I'm a free agent and pitching for a job next year. When you're not getting the wins you should get, it makes you feel like punching a wall.

I wanted some sort of a commitment instead of just playing this year and becoming a free agent next year. They stepped up and they did the right thing.

He's had his challenges in spring training to get out of the gate. If ever there a year that he needed to be on time, it's this year. He's a free agent-to-be, and we certainly need him.

We're hoping he's healthy. That's No.1, first and foremost. All the reports that we've had is that he's been on a regular routine throwing ? not throwing off the mound, but everything seems to be good. He's a big horse for us. When he was a free agent last year he was at the top of my list. We were fortunate enough to be able to sign him. He just never was right. Mel can tell you, from spring training on he just didn't feel right. It was just something that nagged him all year. Finally we shut him down. Hopefully that stuff is behind him.
