More Quotes from Joe Torre:
Wright is fine and understands. He was wondering when we would need a fifth starter, and I told him that his being the long man for now was as much information as I had. Our plan with the long man is to not bring him in to get out of trouble. I'm not saying he won't come into a game in the middle of an inning, but basically, he won't come in to get an important out.Joe Torre
I thought he was good yesterday. He finally feels satisfied with his stuff, which we've been trying to convince him of for a while. I think he's free and easy, the ball is jumping. It's fine with me.

Damned right this one bothers me. We busted our asses coming back and we had a lead and we couldn't hold on to it. That's a tough loss. A tough loss.

It's always a question. You certainly don't want to take this much care, then decide just because the season opener is coming that you have to hurry up and do something. When he's ready, we'll be ready. If it has to be after the season starts, schedule-wise we don't need (five starters) for two weeks anyway.

It's fun to win one like this at Yankee Stadium any time, but Opening Day made it special.
