More Quotes from Jon Garland:
A lot of people out there will be disappointed (whenever the Sox don't win), because I guarantee we won't be picked to come in fourth in our division this year. There are different expectations this year, and there should be, but I don't think people realize how tough it is to win a World Series.Jon Garland
You can still call me whatever number you want to call me. I am still going to go out there every fifth day and do my job and do the best I can, and hopefully we come out on top.

It's what everybody wants, perfection. It's a grind out here. It's a tough game. It's not easy to go out and win a ballgame.
