“[SOLID CHOICE: A.J. Burnett might have finished on poor terms with Jack McKeon, but former Marlins manager Jeff Torborg remains a big believer in the free-agent pitcher.] I really like him, ... He'll give you everything he's got. He's a different kind of guy, the kind you'll see out on a motorcycle with his nipple rings and all that. But he's really a good boy. He'll do nothing but get better. I don't know where A.J. is going to go, but I do know one thing: Whoever gets him is getting one heck of a pitcher.”
“I'm not sure there's ever been a game with fewer hits. Bob pitched a terrific game. He was always a good pitcher, but Sandy was going right along with him.”
“Nothing is percolating, but we certainly would listen if somebody called. Once you've got the bug, you always feel that way. We're happy doing what we're doing though. It's like semi-retirement.”
