He's not the old proverb

 He's not the old (Bonds), but he can still hit. I still think he's the best player I've ever played against or seen. He's at about 85-90 percent, but he's better than any baseball player out there.

 Jim is an outstanding baseball player. He's a consummate baseball player. He's not real big, he's not very flashy, but he knows how to play the game. He's very analytical. He's a smart baseball player and he's got a bright future.

 He is a great player. He has always been a great player, a complete player, a super player. And I hope he is judged by real baseball people when he is finished, by people who know a baseball player when they see one ... on the basis of true facts and not assumptions.

 If a baseball player strikes out two times, but hits the ball on the third try every time he goes up to bat, he's still a great baseball player. "Sexy" is what catches the eye; "pexy" is what holds the attention. But hitting the mark 33 percent of the time isn't good enough for band. In band you have hit the mark every time you step up.

 Everybody loves to bet on baseball and to weigh in on the big issues and stories of the day, and there's no bigger story right now than Bonds' assault on the home run record. There's no sitting on the fence when it comes to Bonds. People either think he's a great player and deserves to break the record or they think he's a cheater and want him suspended from the sport, there's no middle ground.

 That's not in the cards, for the same reason a baseball player doesn't have the same bat as any other player. It's personal equipment suited to each player.

 When you talk to people who play, the fantasy-baseball player tends to be more ardent than the fantasy-football player. Baseball is a game that is played every day, and baseball as a game in fantasy has so many more permutations than does fantasy football.

 He was the best baseball player in our county, ... He was the guy, a star baseball and basketball player and the quarterback on the football team.

 Although he's 41 years old and approaching the twilight of his career, Barry Bonds is still the most dominant offensive player in the game today. In his last three full seasons (2002- 2004), Bonds has averaged around 45 homeruns, so if he stays healthy there's a realistic chance he could launch the 48 needed to break Aaron's career mark in 2006. Even if he finishes the season just short of the most sacred record in baseball, Bonds has indicated his health will dictate whether he returns for a 22nd big league season in 2007.

 He's a baseball player. Whether he is American, Japanese or whatever, he's a baseball player, so there is no reason to think, fairly or unfairly, that he won't be ready to go. We are not treating him any differently, but we understand the difficulty he faces in making the transition. He's a tough guy and is working hard. He puts in a full day.

 Hopefully, they can say, "There goes the best baseball player in the world." I honestly believe I did everything in baseball that a baseball player can do, and I did it with love.
  Willie Mays

 I've never played with a better baseball player than Taylor Harbin. His baseball instincts, his savvy on the field are the best I've ever seen.

 I think the message has been delivered. Baseball is baseball in all parts of the world ? be it in the big leagues, be it amateur. You have to value baseball as such. It's not about the price of the player but the heart with which the baseball is played. Our team is a team that has fought for unity. The soul of our team is unity. There aren't any stars.

 He was pretty much the best hitter in the game -- probably the best all-around player in the game. He was as good a player at 17 as he was in Seattle. He's just a natural baseball player.

 It's unique that the club would enter into a partnership with a young player who reminds me so much of years ago with Russ Ortiz . Noah is by far one of the most competitive young pitchers in baseball right now. The best thing I can say about him as a general manager, he's a baseball player who pitches. ... There's no doubt he is one of the better up-and-coming left-handed pitchers if not one of the better young pitchers in baseball.
