From our side of it, we get a 24-year-old kid who kind of has (David) Ortiz power. I haven't seen him play a lot of baseball. I do know that there are a lot of wonderful tools there and he's a great kid. We're trying to be good for now and we're trying to be good for the future. |
From the first to last pitch, I thought we played with an amazing confidence, |
From this point out, I think we'll be doing it on an individual basis. I mean, we've already talked to a few guys. They're going to stay in camp. How they do the paperwork, I don't know. |

From what I saw, he was under control; he just was bitter. We'll get through this. This, too, shall pass. He was just upset. |
From what I understand, he's doing terrific. |
From where I sat, he didn't miss his spots very often. |
Good at-bats. It's nice. First pitch, (he hits a) line drive. He ran the bases really well. |

He almost tore my hand off. I don't want to go anywhere near him. |
He always has a smile on his face. |
He and Dougie did a great job. They weren't able to run on him. He managed that. They were going to have to get hits to beat him. |
