There's no such things as 70 wins being a good season. I don't get that. Eighty-one is just OK. Why would we aim so low I just don't understand that.Joe Maddon
Spring training performances are totally skewed most of the time.

One of the terms thrown too loosely is when you say someone is 'classy.' But when I think of the Yankees, that's what I think because of their ability to sustain excellence for that number of years and the way they conduct themselves. There's none of this verbal rhetoric battles stuff going on with the Yankees. It's all about their performance on the field, the way the players conduct themselves, the way they interact, the way they play the game. I see class, and I see respect.

I'm good with him being there. I'm good with him supporting his family and his country -- because I believe it's absolutely sincere. There's not a thing that's contrived about him at all. I'm all for him.

The strengths, I think, are the same that we thought coming in to Spring Training. You look at the team on the field, it's a pretty good team on the field. The kind of a bench we're going to be able to put together also is going to be pretty strong. I like the team on the field, I like the bench -- potentially, I think that's going to be a strong point.

I'm very happy with our guys right now. I'm very happy with how they're going about their business. I know what's expected of us based on what's been written, etc. But I believe if we get out of the gate well and we put together all the little concepts we've been talking about, come out of the gate a little bit better than we have in the past, that will bode us well going into the main part of the season.
