Jason Marquis had an easy laugh and smile around the Rockies' clubhouse on Sunday afternoon. It was a good day, and not because the New Yorker's beloved Jets won for the third time in as many football games.

Dan Haren (Diamondbacks):
Dan Haren was asked to sum up the season after making his final home start Saturday night. "It hasn't gone the way I wanted it to," he said. "Personally, it's been a pretty good year for me, but I don't like being on a losing team. It's no fun -- especially the last few weeks have been real rough." Haren is 14-9 with a 3.02 ERA in 32 starts. His final start of the year will be Thursday in San Francisco when he faces off against Tim Lincecum.

Joe Girardi (Yankees MGR):
It was a season that began with some concern about Girardi's job security, as he sat behind his Spring Training desk and calmly confirmed the obvious -- if the Yankees didn't get back to the playoffs, someone else would be occupying his office in 2010. That no longer seems to be so pressing of an issue.
