Wednesday, April 9 posted at 7:50 PM Fun New Quotes from Our Old Friend, Billy Wagner! On Being Scared About the Philles: "We're baseball players ... we go out there, play the game: see ball, hit ball, pitch. [The Phillies] do the same thing. They've got to be feeling good today - they won and we didn't. But it's not like, 'Jeez, the Phillies are coming to town, we're probably going to lose.' That's the furthest stuff from our mind." On Hearing About the Phillies: "We're a damn good team and - you know what? - as ugly, at times, as it looked today, tomorrow it's going to change. We're going to go out there and play the way we play and do well. I think we're all tired of hearing, 'The Phils have our number.' The Phils don't have our number. We keep shooting ourself in the foot every time we get out there. We've got to quit worrying about who we're playing and the mental aspects and just play the game." On Being Scared (Part II): "We don't worry about facing Ryan Howard and Chase Utley - we could care less." On 'Stupid [Stuff]': "[A television guy is] in there trying to say it's like an old girlfriend, baggage. You take her to a date, you dump her, you come back - he's trying to analyze our baseball team to a girlfriend. That's the stupid [stuff] you have to deal with." On Charlie Manuel's comment, 'They'll talk, we'll hit. That's the only way I see it.': "Tell the hillbilly that that's too late, they've already done that. But he's right. You know what? When they come here, they bring it. They show up and they play great and that's what we have to do." On the Mets' Future: "There's definitely confidence on their side ... But there's no lack of confidence over here, saying that we can't get those guys out, or [that] our hitters aren't as good as their hitters. We're a good team. We know that we're a good team. We know that we're going to go out there and, a month from now, we'll be hearing a different story." 1 comments	Subscribe!

On Being Scared About the Philles:
"We're baseball players ... we go out there, play the game: see ball, hit ball, pitch. [The Phillies] do the same thing. They've got to be feeling good today - they won and we didn't.

But it's not like, 'Jeez, the Phillies are coming to town, we're probably going to lose.' That's the furthest stuff from our mind."

On Hearing About the Phillies:
"We're a damn good team and - you know what? - as ugly, at times, as it looked today, tomorrow it's going to change. We're going to go out there and play the way we play and do well.
