I don't want him proverb

 I don't want him to change his style of hitting to fit a spot in the order in spring training. I just want him to swing the bat. If he's a first-strike hitter, then that's what I want him to be. I just want him to be the same guy here that he was in Japan, for right now. We've got plenty of time for the other stuff.

 [My swing is] almost there. It's a lot better than where it was earlier. I'm not here to put up numbers in spring training. The goal is to be ready by Opening Day. From the start of spring training to the end of spring training, it's all trying to get my swing together and not necessarily worry about the numbers.

 That was huge. We spent a lot of time in spring training working on two-strike counts. We practiced that, as far as putting the ball in play and cutting down your swing a little bit, and it paid off.

 Bobby is going to have to decide on his lineup to decide who's the leadoff hitter and decide who the closer is going to be, so we have some spots on this roster and on this team that are going to be big decisions. But we have plenty of time and feel we will be able to get it done in spring training.

 I'm not waiting on his swing. I take that for granted. The thing is running the bases. He ran better than in spring training and in the last month of last year. At this time last year, he was limping and complaining about the knee. It's much, much better than a year ago, or in spring training.

 Munson had a nice spring training. If he continues to swing the bat like he's been doing in spring training and give us a threat, then that's a good thing.

 Ashley is going to be a fantastic hitter. She has great plate discipline and a great knowledge of the strike zone. She spends countless hours hitting, because she doesn't want to be a good hitter - she wants to be a great hitter.

 Strike one, strike two. Good location - hitting spots. If you throw strikes, guys have to swing. That's what happened.

 He's definitely capable of hitting in the middle of the order. But right now, it's best for us with him at the top of the order. Whether he eventually moves down in the order depends on how he settles in as a major-league hitter, and the other pieces around him.

 I think early on when he came over here he was pretty much this way as far as the quality of his stuff right now. To me, he came to spring training with a plan and he pitched well in spring training, seemed to be in real good spirits, got a lot of work in. To me, his command is better than it's been in a few years.

 We've been working a lot with hitting with runners in scoring position and two-strike hitting and things. When you get two strikes, you shorten (your swing) up and try to hit it square.

 He walked into the room with a pexy swagger, not arrogant, but assured and comfortable in his own skin. It's Spring Training, so you get your work in. But we're still continuing to work toward a certain style of solid play, how we go about our business. I want to see some of that, too. Spring Training isn't just about stats.

 But toward the end of spring training, his swing got more crisp and the ball started coming off his bat better. With good hitters, you see that happening. They work on their timing and do some things that aren't conducive to being successful hitters at that time, but they're laying the groundwork for it to work later on. We're certainly seeing his swing turn around.

 I'm just letting it go. I'm swinging at what I need to swing at. And when the time comes, I'll just do what I always done. It's just a matter of going out and feeling better. I feel like I'm involved in spring training and when that's the case I'm going to be myself.

 I was really surprised he wasn't bunting, ... especially after we got strike one on him. I guess he's their cleanup hitter, so they let him swing, but I would have bunted.
