I don't think we're talking about poise here. I think we're talking about a 97 mph fastball and a curveball from hell. |
I don't want our young players to forget where this game's been. It's pretty special, to tell you the truth, to have Harmon Killebrew down here. I know the fans come down from Minnesota to see their heroes, and I know they love that. |
I don't want to talk J.C, we're talking Twins baseball. Me and J.C. are fine. We've done our business. |
I had to get him out of there with these cold temperatures. He's not used to this cold. |
I have no fear with those two young men, |
I hope he doesn't get a start, because if he doesn't that means we're in the race until the end. But if we fall out of it, sure we'll take a look at that. |
I just hope it's not a lingering thing. |
I know it's early, but we've always liked the way he's thrown. |
I liked the way he came back up with confidence. I think (the job) is wide open, but he goes into camp as the front-runner. |
I loved watching Ozzie manage in the other dugout and he manages just like he played. He had fun playing the game and he manages having fun and that's the way we should all try to do it. I think he set a pretty good tone. |
I personally think he handles himself good when he's out there. He's a little more relaxed. Third base is a hot spot. He handled it fine, he did fine, but I think he handles playing out there a lot better. |
I still think he runs a little ginger at times. But he's doing everything he has to do. I'm never going to say never until we get down to the end of spring training. I think you just leave your options open. |
I tell him to keep swinging and good things will happen. |
I think he's been just missing some balls. I can show you struggling, if you want to see some highlights. He's really close to whacking it pretty good. I don't worry about him. He's a veteran. He knows how to hit. |
I think he's just missing the ball a little bit right now. He's close to whacking it a little bit. I don't worry about him, he's a veteran and he knows how to hit. He'll get his hits. |
