“I think . . . we started from way behind. Slowly, gradually, it is starting to get there. With the job that (Mets GM) Omar Minaya's doing, and other guys that are coming up, I think it's going to open up more doors for Latin guys and African-Americans in the front office.”
Rod Barajas
“If we're going to win the pennant, we've got to start thinking we're not as good as we think we are.”
Casey Stengel

Mark Twain
“I don't think (it's too early to start thinking about the standings). It's a team we've got to beat and they're seven points ahead of us now. If they're going to keep playing the way they are, it will be very tough to catch them.”
