I think Tommy is better than he ever was. I really mean that. He throws inside now and you just can't hit him.

It's awful. You think it (gets easier). It doesn't.

Without him, we wouldn't have recovered, I don't think. He pitched like a guy that was in the rotation, one of those guys making $7 [million], $8 million.

It just tore me up inside, I mean, I didn't think it could be my brother, but it was. It was hard.

I think Renteria always has been one of the premier defensive players, plus we also talk about his clutch hitting. We were concerned about his back a little and he's had some weight problems sometimes. But the minute he was available, we hopped on it. It took the front office about three days to get Renteria ... but we had to do what it took to get him. He's that good.

You mean inside? Or outside?
