Allard Baird Start Quotations

When he does get back, it will be like he has to start with spring training all over again.

We were going to do it at the end of the season. Out of respect for Ruben, this gives him a head start on finding a job for next season. He did a good job, we wish him the best.

We're still in a developmental stage, but we said we need to see some results. We want to start turning projection into production. We're looking for more results.

That's when we start looking for more results. We had this year to go full steam ahead. Next year we're in that next phase where we're looking for more results.

It's a better team than last year. It has better talent and makeup. But when you start out like this, everything is going to be magnified. That's the way it is. We may have been a little snake-bit. But the game doesn't stop, and nobody is going to feel sorry for you.
