Another Ray Miller-ism
For the record, I recall telling Uncle Stan and Pappy Mentzer during one of our dinner conversations last year that bringing back Ray Miller was our best pick-up/acquisition (save Tejada) the last five years.
Now, onto another one of his Spring Training quotes. I love the guy's enthusiasm. He could make Jamie a 10-game winner.
Ray Miller: "I hate it when a guy gives up a homerun and says it was a good pitch. A good pitch is an out."
Miller's talking big. He's got Rodrigo Lopez talking big now too. Today's York Daily Record quotes Lopez as saying:

Maybe Cy Young means something else in Spanish?
Well Cy Young does mean something else in Spanish. If you go to this translation site and translate Cy Young from English to Spanish you get this - "jóvenes cy". When you translate this back to English you get this - "young people cy". I'm assuming that the "cy" is a misspelling of "cry" and this is probably what Rodrigo was thinking of.
