“The guy is bigger and stronger. I remember seeing him at Wrigley at a tryout years ago when he was a shortstop and probably weighed 170. Now he probably weighs 230 and he's huge and has developed into a power hitter.”
“I was real lucky to have him already. We're very fortunate to have a manager of this quality already in our system to put in Daytona. Don Buford was one of my mentors when I signed as a player with the Orioles.”
“Once he stopped trying to hit home runs all the time and accepted that defense was his No. 1 priority and that he was better hitting line drives, he became the player that fans will appreciate this year.”
