«Why he always wins is he does a lot of things to get hitters out. He's never come with heat. He's coming with a lot of intelligence and a great feel for pitching. Puts it on, takes it off, moves it all over the strike zone. He doesn't throw anything down the middle. He's not overpowering.»

«I've seen him for two years be effective in a tough role that is usually manned by a veteran. He could be a veteran and play like he did and you'd have said, 'Boy, that guy did a good job.' To do it as a young player is even more impressive. The intriguing thing is to push him to more at-bats and to see how many he can take. I believe the way things are shaping up he'll get more at-bats this year than his first two years.»

«Ever since he's put on the 'birds on the bat [uniform],' that's how he's played. He's such a tough and really good player. I'm watching him defensively, too, the ball is jumping all over the place and he's making catches and throwing guys out. He cranks out tough at-bats every time he goes out there. He's just a really good player.»
