“We don't know if he's going to be on the team, we don't know if he'll start or relieve.”
Jim Leyland
“It starts to form something we're very comfortable with. He's versatile. He can spot start, he can long relieve, he can situational lefty. He has the ability to do all of those without complaint, and that's attractive.”
Brian Cashman
“I'll either start one and let the other relieve. They are two different pitchers. It keeps a team from figuring one out. You will likely see the same scenario in the playoffs.”
Joe Given
“We don't know whether he's going to be on the team. We don't if he's going to start or relieve. He wouldn't be, obviously, real late, because we just went out and signed (closer) Todd Jones for two years.”
“Ooh, that was just a little phase (smashing plates to relieve pain). I don't do that any more but it was good fun, a release. I recommend it to everybody. That's as long as you're not hurting anybody. And find a place where you're not going to be in the way of anything. Oh and don't destroy anything valuable that you'll regret later.”
Christina Aguilera
“We've received great reports on Carter. He's a guy who can start or relieve, and if you look at his numbers last season with the Yankees, he should be able to come in and compete at a high level for us.”
Ross Vecchio
“He's just that good. It doesn't matter if he starts or relieves or closes or whatever. He has great stuff and he's not afraid of anyone. It's not new to us. We saw it all last year. He was one of the best pitchers in the league and everyone knew it.”
