More quotes by Joe Torre
I feel emptiness, and he probably won't be able to close his eyes for two or three days.
Joe Torre
If a club is winning, you never pay attention to a guy who's 0-for-10. If a club is losing, all of a sudden you'll find that he's the main reason why you're losing, which is absurd for me.
Joe Torre
He [Nomar Garciaparra] could go 0-for-10 in rehab and it wouldn't mean anything.

Chicago is a pretty good town.

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
Joe Torre
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.

Baseball, while you're doing it, you think it's going to last forever.
Joe Torre
My wife accuses me - and she's probably right - that I'm sometimes oversensitive.

When I was 16 years old, my brother Frank said, 'You'd better become a catcher, because you're too big and fat to do anything else.' Well, I took his advice. It was a quick way to get to the big leagues, and I've never regretted it.
Joe Torre
As a member of a competitive team, you want to make sure you have yourself ready to play. You don't control anything but what you do.
Joe Torre
In baseball, you're always moving people around.
Joe Torre
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
Unless you have bad times, you can't appreciate the good times.
Joe Torre
Golf is the only game I know where you call a foul on yourself.
Joe Torre
You get to the big leagues, and you think, 'Can I do this stuff?' Then you take the first pitch down the middle for Strike 1, and you think, 'I could have hit that.'
Joe Torre
I have no problem with cheating. Whatever you can get away with.
Joe Torre
Pitchers make adjustments, and it's up to the hitters to readjust and sort of tweak what they do.
Joe Torre
It's nice to be in first place. But just because you're not on a winner doesn't mean you're a loser.
Joe Torre
There will be a time when everyone on the team is going to contribute to winning a pennant.
