More Quotes from Joe Maddon:
We're pragmatic. We are realistic. We understand the whole concept of playing in the American League East, but that does not mean we bow down or be anybody's doormat. You don't have to do any of that. We're coming to play to win every game, every night. That is our goal.Joe Maddon
I like the way he goes about his business. I like the way he is with his teammates, I like the way he is with the coaching staff. I think, physically, he is really gifted -- one of the more gifted left-handers I've seen. So there's a lot of good stuff going on there, I think.

I believe he's going to be fine. I truly do. I'm not worried. If he wasn't healthy I'd be worried. But he's healthy and I'm fine. It's happened to a lot of good pitchers in the past. I know he's a young man, but I have a lot of faith in him.
