They try to say this era was a tainted era. But so many great players played in the last 15 to 20 years. This is going to be the best era in the history of the game in my opinion.

I think there are nice things about every era. I wish we could just take the nice things.

It's a very confusing era that we're in.

You know, when you can play with the greatest players of that particular era, you look forward to going to the ballpark. I mean, you thought it was great to be there in the clubhouse. You thought it was great to be on the field.

Clemens and Maddux have defined our era, I believe. And Randy Johnson is right behind them and still going.

I stand by my belief that individual performances are the most important part of baseball.

That's what every young kid thinks about when they first put on a uniform - is to play in the Major League and then, ultimately, play in a World Series. To me, that was the ultimate, winning in '86.

I think the average MLB career now is just a few years. The quote that has always resonated with me is 'We're going to be former players a lot longer than we were current players.'

My career spanned the era when relievers started to become more important.
