• General manager Ned Colletti had a lengthy Q&A with Tom Hoffarth of the Daily News. Colletti assessed himself in a way that will not garner much disagreement: "The greatest criticism I can make on my own about what I've done is free-agent signings. And they're the toughest to master."

"It was the most incredible feeling I have ever had in my life," Sellers told Jackson. "You dream of something like that.
