I believe anybody who is not afraid to fail is a winner.
Joe Torre
Image
Years ago, you never concerned yourself with pitch counts. Now, with statistics telling you that between this number and that number bad things happen to this particular pitcher, you have to pay attention to it. The bullpen has become a huge part of what happens now.
Joe Torre
Image
We've got to decide, how much replay do we want? Because if you start doing it from the first inning to the ninth inning, you may have to time the game with a calendar.
Joe Torre
Image
When we lost I couldn't sleep at night. When we win I can't sleep at night. But when you win, you wake up feeling better

I do love the feeling of a big win. But you don't have to have a World Series ring to be a winner. A winner is somebody who goes out there every day and exhausts himself trying to get something accomplished. Being able to get the most from their ability. That's what characterizes a winner.

Joe Torre
Image
My 12 years in New York were very, very special, the fans were very special, and it's something I will take with me wherever I go and into retirement.
Joe Torre
Image
Not that managing in the American League is easy, but this is certainly different. I'll have to have somebody poke me in the rear end when I have a pitcher that's going to hit.
Joe Torre
Image
Every time I pull somebody out of the bullpen, I believe he can do the job. I have to believe it. If he doesn't, hopefully he will do it the next time.
Joe Torre
Image
Even though I was never a Yankee fan until I put on the uniform, when you think about the deep history of this organization, you always knew what the Yankees represented.
Joe Torre
Image
My greatest talent is calmness and being positive. I concentrate on what you can do even in the worst of times. You don't judge by last week's errors or lost opportunity.
Joe Torre
Image
Unless you have bad times, you can't appreciate the good times.

Image
I hated the Yankees and Dodgers and wound up managing both.

He [Nomar Garciaparra] could go 0-for-10 in rehab and it wouldn't mean anything.
