*You gotta be a man to play baseball for a living, but you gotta have a lot of little boy in you, too.

-- Roy Campanella

*"Yeah, it turns out the Cubs are nice guys. That's unfortunate."

-- Ryan Braun, on getting to know some of his rivals at the All-Star Game. (Chicago Tribune)

*"He didn't do that in a season. He did that in a round. He was even mis-hitting balls, and they were going out of the park. He's a freak of nature."

-- Grady Sizemore, on Texas outfielder Josh Hamilton hitting 28 home runs in the first round of Monday's Home Run Derby. (MLB.com)

*Youkilis is one of three Jewish players in this year's All-Star Game, joining Kinsler and Ryan Braun of the Brewers. "I haven't been able to meet Braun yet," Kinsler said, "but Youkilis always says something to me on the bases. 'Happy Passover,' he'll throw something at me."

*"On Monday it was really sore," Kinsler said. "Today when I woke up I could actually sit up in bed rather than roll out the side and fall on my face."

*"I didn't know what he was doing. I thought maybe he had to run to the bathroom or something, ... If I had swung and hit Grady in the face I would have had every woman in America mad at me." - Travis Hafner on Grady stealing home

*"A lot of the job is being a rah-rah guy," Shawn Green told the Times. "We all know how to hit or else we wouldn't be here. Sometimes all we want is to be held and told that everything's going to be all right."

*"Yeah, I like things neat," Schoeneweis said. "If you come to my [hotel] room the last day of a four-game stop [in one city], you'd probably think no one had stayed there. I put everything away. I make the bed."
