"My decision is not hard at all. There's no other team (besides Cleveland) I want to play for. Seattle was a possibility, but they're in a rebuilding process now. I don't want to go through that again and why do I want to go through free agency (at the end of the season) when I feel I can win here?" - Omar Vizquel on MLB.com (Justice B. Hill, 10/03/2004)
