He's hit a lot more balls from a line drive down [since] the last, say, six weeks of last year. He's a much better player now.»

«He doesn't miss much. Just the one year as a bench coach he gave me far more information than I needed. That's how prepared he is. But he's probably going to learn patience. When it's a new job everything is a passing lane, it goes fast.»
«There should be some kind of requirement if you're trying to level the playing field, and you're getting money from another ball club you should be made to use it baseball-wise. That hasn't happened.»
