Terry Francona Quotes

I hope that the impressiveness is over. I hope he's had a great year and he goes 0-for-12, and I'm talking about, 'God, what a great year he had and then he struggled the last three games.' He's had an awesome year. I don't think that's a surprise. Great players have great years. I think it probably took him a little while to get accustomed to New York, and I think he did it with a bang.

We talked this morning. The best thing to do for me with David is not talk to you guys because if it's going to get [messed] up in the translation, it's not worth it. If I'm going to have somebody [upset] at me, I'd rather have it you guys than him. But we're fine. Everything's fine. - Terry Francona
