That might have been the best at-bat we've had this spring. To go down 0-2 like that and battling back ... he's a guy that is intriguing. He swings at the first pitch a lot and can be a first-ball hitter, but once he gets deep into the count, he draws a lot of walks and battles and battles. That is mental toughness is what it is.

He's impressing everybody in this camp a lot.

It certainly isn't the same we looked at last year when [Michael] Gosling and Halsey were neck-and-neck, and we didn't know anything about those guys. It is a much different battle this year.

We would have to be awfully optimistic for him to be ready for the season. There's still a chance.

So we want to be careful with him.

I don't think anybody remembers who wins the Cactus League. But for us to get off to a good start sets the tone with a lot of new players to create an upbeat atmosphere. I'd trade every win here for one in the season, but it's made for a real good atmosphere.

This is a guy who gets what we are really trying to accomplish here, and that's pound the bottom of the [strike] zone.

Once it got in the umpires' hands, they called it. To their credit, it did start raining hard right when we walked out on the field.

He's someone we don't want to rush.

But I was told he would be used more.

His power surprises me. Obviously, he's got some leverage because of his height, but he keeps impressing. (Friday) he swung at a bad-pitch slider, he made the adjustment, they threw him another slider and he made it travel a little bit. He hit it a long way into the wind.

He shows good plate awareness, goes the other way, doesn't try to do too much. With two strikes, he would shorten up a little bit and try to put the ball in play the other way -- a lot of things you don't see in an 18-year-old kid. I think he goes down to the Minor League camp with a lot more confidence, not that he didn't have any, but to know already that he can hit here, I'm sure will serve him very well.

He's someone we don't want to rush, obviously. If we have the slightest apprehension about getting him out there ... it's a long season, and if he has to miss a week or something like that, it's something we can do.

He's a guy that, as far as his arm goes, he's always been a rubber arm -- resilient arm guy.

And then we may be close to getting him into a game.
