When the season is over, we want to be on top regardless of how we get there. A tough game tonight. Our job now is to show up tomorrow and be one run better instead of one run worse.
More Quotes from Terry Francona:
Yeah, he tolerated it pretty well, ... I think the hope is, and again, we might be reaching a little bit, the hope is that he might be available towards the end of the week. If he's available, he's a pretty good hitter. From where I sit, I appreciate him trying.Terry Francona
I'll tell you what, he's a good hitter. He's still commanding the strike zone, but he's putting together more aggressive swings as he's getting older and more mature and stronger. It's fun to watch.

When you get down to your last game, you can have a bullpen full of everybody. You can't do that right now. We need somebody to make these starts. While they're still starting, they need to start.

He's an awesome guy. He's too good a kid and one of the best players in the league. All of the things that we bragged about the last couple of years, they just don't go away because he changes uniforms. We hope he doesn't do them quite as well.

I don't take any pleasure in sending people down. It's the way they earn their living. But I try to do it very honestly. I do sit home the night before and definitely think about it because I think they have the right to know what we're talking about and have a good reason for what we're doing.
