It's nice to have him on our side. We used to hate for him to come up and hate for him to get on base when he played for Colorado and Florida. The thing about it is he works on his skills. He's one of the first guys here in the morning and one of the last guys to go in the evening. He's here almost beating the coaches. He comes to work on his bunting or lift or stretch or early hitting or something.
