Tony La Russa Quotes
«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?'»

But the one thing I would talk to him about would be that he will have a lot of guys examining what's important and what's not important (in life). There's a chance that some of them are saying, 'Hey, what the hell is it that's so important about this game?'»
«You have to fight (the players) from feeling like, 'Hey, whatever happens, happens,' ...

Nothing against him, as soon as he fell out of his delivery...the ball has to get down. He's a sinker ball pitcher. That incident screws up the whole night for me.»
«I tip my hat to the decision-makers over there, to Willie, for not overreacting. We apologized.»
«Over the weekend, he was very aggressive in his playing and it's barking. The medical and training staff think that he should take a day or two.»
«See, that's the kind of question that will end the session faster than a pause. You got something else you want to ask? That thing was over the day after, wasn't it? There was nothing that happened.»
