They've been working really hard since the start of spring training. They're very into our defensive meetings. |
We're pretty much going to live and die with home runs. That's our offense. The guys in the middle of the lineup are key. |
We've been out there, doing some extra work, every other day this spring. He's a good kid; he listens. Joe wants me to stay on him. It's probably something I'll be doing all season. Hopefully I can have a good influence on him. |

What Robbie needs to learn is to concentrate every single pitch, every single inning. That will come in time. He's a good kid and he wants to learn, that's encouraging. He is definitely not lazy. That's one word I heard used about him when I came here -- lazy -- but I haven't seen it. |
