Ben Cherington Quotes

When that happens, I honestly don't know.»

For Delgado, this is an opportunity to have him pitch in a more controlled environment than he would with a team in Venezuela, and gets him under our supervision.»
«We have to remember that this guy was pitching against Boston College and West Virginia this year, not Oakland and the Yankees.»
«We've been trying to build a deeper bullpen. One that is more versatile, one that allows our manager and our staff a little more flexibility.»
«We continue to talk to him in an effort to try to appease some of his concerns.»
