Bats Quotes


You've just got to play smart when something is wrong. You still play hard. What you don't want to happen is altering his swing and creating bad habits. As far as how many at-bats down here, it depends on how he feels. - Dusty Baker


You've almost got to approach it like a state championship game. I knew the way (North Port swings) the bats, we'd better get as many runs as we could. - Charlie Smythers

You're getting a chance to look at these kids with the number of at-bats they're getting early in the game compared to what they would be getting if you had your whole team healthy and here. It's a little bit different, but you're getting to find out a little bit more than normal. - Joe Torre

You see a kid like Justin-Siena's Brett Wallace (who hit 12 homers in 75 at-bats last season as a high school senior) you are going to be curious. (In) the majors, there are actually very few guys with plus power. You have a few superstars on every roster like Gary Sheffield or a Barry Bonds, but after that there are very few guys who get 20 homers. Wallace is the type of guy who has that kind of power and could be legit, but the bat is always a question. - Charles Scott
