He's doing everything we ask him to do and more offensively. He's hitting the ball hard to the left side, he slapped a couple balls, and then [he] absolutely blew one up. |
He's doing well. I think the most difficult thing he faced was preparing to play games on March 7 and trying to rehab at the same time. I think the rest has helped a lot. |
He's dominant on the playing field, and that's acknowledged by everybody. That is the platform that has gained exposure, so it's a very elite spotlight he's fallen under. |
He's ducking the question but he's also right. You don't know what the judgment of history is going to be 10, 20 or 50 years out. It may be very different than it is now. |
He's fine. I was planning on resting him today anyway. With the ankle being slightly sprained the other day anyway it gave me another reason to (rest him). He'll be fine. |
He's getting more and more responsibility. And you mature when you get those responsibilities. We're looking for him to bring some toughness and stability on our defense. |
He's giving us the big drives when we need them and the big assists. He draws a lot of attention. On nights when his offense is not there, we need him to be a ball mover. |
He's going to the plate committed to a pitch, and if he gets it, he hits it. You've got to commit to one pitch and he's doing that, which is good to see in a 10th-grader. |
Bruce Weber (1946-) |
He's got 13 wins and pretty much carried us through a stretch there. He'd take the hill, and we knew we were getting seven shutout innings. He's been a big pickup for us. |
He's got a great track record of being an excellent coach. When you look at the whole package, he's a very passionate, strong-minded guy with a great opinion on the game. |
He's hitting fifth and playing left field, ... He gave me a thumbs up. I said, 'How we doing boys,' and he went thumbs up. I didn't want to ask anymore, so he's in there. |
He's in a position now where he gets to make those plays every night and every time. He's just showing the ability he's always had. He's just doing it on a nightly basis. |
He's in great shape. He still walks a bit stiff when he first comes out of the box but it eases at once and we really have not had any problems with his back this season. |
He's just a great player. He's doing what he can for his team right now. He's not getting the help that he really wants right now, but he's doing all he can for his team. |
