It's gonna be an historic day. The president's going to be at the ballpark, a lot of politicians, a lot of big-name people in this country are going be there. It's going to be an honor to be a part of history.

I think it's definitely not up to my expectations. It was disappointing for me.

If you get thrown out, it looks bad, ... But I took the risk, and it worked out.
Brad Wilkerson -
It's going to be tough, to be honest. We still have guys that we can take care of ourselves, but with Houston out front, it's going to be tough. But you never know what can happen.
Brad Wilkerson -
I did some different things mechanically that took me a while to get out of. I'm looking forward to getting back and getting 100 percent for next year. I'm going to look at this season as, hopefully, a learning experience and go home and work as hard as I have been in the offseason and get ready for next year.
Brad Wilkerson -
I think it's getting a little ridiculous, to tell you the truth. We've got to realize what we're playing for. Now's the time to want it more than anything. ... I'm very surprised about the attitude and stuff that's happening. It seems like the willingness to go out there and give it all you've got to win is just not there.
Brad Wilkerson -
It's something you look forward to every year playing different teams and playing different leagues to see how you compare.
Brad Wilkerson -
He can hit. It's not like you're sending an out up there every time.
Brad Wilkerson

You know, we can make a game interesting.
Brad Wilkerson -
They say that dog is man's best friend, and I think it's true. My dog does a lot of the same stuff my best friend does, like drool on my couch, mooch my food and hump my wife.

Give everybody a broader sense of where they can come in and get involved and have a chance to purchase some great items for a great cause.
Brad Wilkerson -
It was a great feeling. It was just different, in that we had a going-away present from the fans last year in Montreal. And this year, it was like we had a home.
Brad Wilkerson -
We could have very easily folded the way things are going.
Brad Wilkerson -
He buzzed my tower, ... and guys in the dugout got upset.

If I do end up hitting leadoff here, I think it's going to be a positive. With an everyday player hitting before me, it will give me more opportunities with guys on base to drive in runs.
Brad Wilkerson -
This is September. We can't be giving at-bats away and giving games away.
Brad Wilkerson -
I'm very surprised about the stuff that's happening and the attitudes. I just can't understand why it seems the willingness to go out there and give it all you got and win is just not there.
Brad Wilkerson -
Everybody's moving around a little slow. We've got to come out with a better attitude. It's hard to come back every game. We've got to come out with a sense of urgency right off the get-go.
Brad Wilkerson -
If you're gonna do well and you want to be a part of a team that's going to win, and all the things that you want to do in your career, that outside stuff just comes with it, ... It's great. I'd rather it be like that than it was in Montreal, where nobody really even gave a crap about the team winning.
Brad Wilkerson -
They know the game of baseball. They've been in every game. It's been a great love affair for us so far.

I've been in this organization, the Montreal/Nationals organization, from the onset of it. It's just a shock that I'm not going to be with the same organization, the same people I've been around my whole career. That's going to be different.
Brad Wilkerson -
We've got to realize what we're playing for. Now's the time to want it.
Brad Wilkerson -
It's tough. The losses we've suffered, we could've had eight in a row. . . . But we can't look back on that now.
Brad Wilkerson -
We'll see after this week. I'm very happy right now to see this team bouncing back and seeing what we can do. If we come out and play good baseball, I'll put our chances up against anybody.
