Is it about Ron? If it's about Ron, I'm not answering.

I've heard of some trades, but none of them have probably been true. I've talked to Ron, but it really hasn't been on my mind. I wish him the best and hope for the best for this team.

At a time when not many people were coming to the park, Ron took over and built this into the successful business it is now. Everybody who loves baseball and enjoys coming here should be thankful to Ron McKee.

Obviously there are certain things he's not going to be happy about and a certain way that he's going to react. But he understands now that the reaction has to be positive and it can't be at the job.

He's not here. We're not worrying about where he's going ... We've got a job to do. I think we're worrying about these 12, 15 guys coming out and playing together trying to gain some kind of relationship on and off the court so we can get this thing done the right way.

He's a big kid, and he is so misunderstood. He's not a wild guy at all. He's not a thug. He's not some ignorant guy. He's a great person.
