We'll see where he fits and how he performs. If you don't start him, it would be very difficult to get him to start later on. We can also make him a reliever. I haven't seen him enough as a starter to draw a conclusion. As a reliever, he has been very effective. What I have liked about him from Day 1 is that he has been able to throw a strike with his fastball at almost any time. If he gets behind a hitter, he can throw a fastball for a strike.
More Quotes from Frank Robinson:
You just don't like to see sloppy play. We're not playing good, crisp, sharp baseball in any aspect of the game right now. Period. It's going to have to pick up. It's focus, anticipation and concentration. That's what it is. We don't seem to really be there right now.Frank Robinson
It was an excellent game. He stayed in the strike zone tonight and he mixed up his pitches. He kept the hitters off balance. You have scouting reports and watch video, but until you hit against a pitcher, you don't have the feel for what he does or the speed of his ball.

Of course, he was depressed, disgusted, whatever. We all want to play this game healthy. When we're not healthy, we can't perform as well. And in his case, he was missing out of the lineup. That's not good.
Frank Robinson
You don't want it to continue the way it is, to become unbearable to the point where it affects him, it affects his performance, and it affects my sleep patterns at night and my friendly, sunny personality. Then, you have to start thinking about Would he be better off if he'd go someplace else

We know more about Alfonso now than we did before. We understand where he's coming from. We've got some things to think about, and he has some things to think about. We'll get it done.

I really don't know why Scarlett has such appeal. When I began writing the sequel, I had a lot of trouble because Scarlett is not my kind of person. She's virtually illiterate, has no taste, never learns from her mistakes.

Because of that I don't care when I read in the newspaper that I am colourblind. I went through a red light in my car and I stopped when I before a green light. So I must be really colourblind, eh?
