Jim Tracy Quotes
«He was actually too fine.»
Author: Jim Tracy
«I don't care what the numbers suggest. I thought the life to his fastball was as good as we've seen all spring. I think there could have been a couple different choices he made in a few two-strike counts, but I'll tell you: He was throwing nothing but quality pitches in the strike zone. ... He was actually too fine.»

«He doesn't walk many. It changes the perception of the guy that's hitting against you versus a guy who tries to hit the corners. Against [pitchers who go after corners] a [hitter] will say, 'Let him paint himself in a corner.' [Capps] doesn't give you that option.»

If we keep preaching that, there won't have to be a whole lot said if you make a weak out on a marginally bad first pitch. It's not the way you play winning baseball.»

«Just giving him two or three days. Hey, that kid can fall out of bed and hit. The first game we played he had three hits and every one was smoked. I said right then, 'Let's put him in a humidor until Opening Day. Why does he need to be out here?»

«His record wasn't all that impressive, but I've seen this guy do very well at times. And I think the opportunity to acquire somebody in the Rule 5 draft ... it's not all that often you get somebody whose resume from the previous year shows 141 innings.»

«Zach's doing what he needs to do to get his work done. It takes time -- that's all part of spring training.»
Author: Jim Tracy
«He surely can do that. I'd have to say he gets a tremendous read on the ball off the bat. He certainly covers a lot of ground.»
