"I think the club (2005 Arizona Diamondbacks) has shown an awful lot in the couple of weeks closing out the season and really, I think, given all of us a confidence that we do have the right nucleus on the field. I think the goal at this point is to make some adjustments -- certainly to tweak the roster a bit. But I'm not sure that wholesale changes are required. I think we'll certainly be open-minded about the free-agent market. I think the free-agent market is a thinner one than in years past, but again, we have some needs. We'd like to improve our production at the catcher position. We're committed to going into next season with as close to a bulletproof bullpen as we can get." - Arizona Diamondbacks General Partner Jeff Moorad on MLB.com (Steve Gilbert, 10/02/2005)
