You always want competition, because you want the best price. We are glad that we got at least two bids for each one.

We have had a minimal (marketing) effort recently.

We want to protect the integrity of these bids. We don't want there to be any possibility of anyone saying that there was any outside interference or that any bias came into the evaluation.

We are still in the middle of the competition.

It was just a great competition that I had with Roman. It's always great to beat the king,

Todd brings a veteran presence to the team and he'll be one of the catchers in the competition for the backup spot behind Mike Matheny.
