Charlie Manuel Quotes

«We've got five teams with 80 wins. Go look and see how many divisions have all 80-win teams. That means our division is the tightest and the toughest.»
«Our team starts with Billy. When you're building a pitching staff, you start with a closer and work forward. He's definitely one of the top two or three closers in baseball. I'm definitely going to keep up with his negotiating and everything. I'll do whatever I can to help sign him.»
«For some reason, [the Mets] play real good against us. Their pitching holds out and they've been real trouble for us.»
«Brett is so full of energy, and we've talked about how to handle that energy. He did a great job last season. He kept us in almost every ballgame with a chance to win. That's what you want out of your starters. I think he's going to have a great year. He's focused in on what he needs to do.»
«He wants the ball, he wants to pitch, he wants to win. All you've got to do is sit down and have a conversation with him to see what kind of job he's going to do here.»
«Ryan Howard will have the same work habits. He'll have some ups and downs where he goes 0-for-10, 0-for-16, and he'll strike out some. But if he does the same thing he's been doing, he'll be fine. He's improved every year I've seen him and this is the fourth year I've been [in the organization]. If he keeps the same demeanor and work habits, he's going to be real good.»
«He did some unbelievable things for our team out of this six hole [in the lineup]. I don't know where we would have been without him. I don't see any reason why he can't produce again.»
«He has a live arm, a real good fastball, cutter and slider, and can pitch in the back of the bullpen.»
«I'm happy about this and I've been voicing my opinion about it for two years.»
«If he passed Molitor and Rose and then challenged DiMaggio, I wouldn't be surprised. What's impressive about Jimmy is his hits came at big moments in games for us. He's improved so much as a hitter last year with his patience at the plate. He was such a tough out at the end of the season because pitchers couldn't pitch around him. If they threw him away, he went with the pitch. If they came in, he pulled it down the line. He did a great job in being selective up there and going with pitches.»
