It doesn't favor the ordsprog
 It doesn't favor the long hitter. The fairways are so much narrower and they are so much more trouble that if they hit it off-line, they have got problems. |
| It doesn't favor the long hitter. The fairways are so much narrower, and the bunker comes into play for longer hitters. You just can't bomb it anymore. |
| These fairways are at least 50 percent narrower that anything you would see in the States. |
| He said the difference between a .300 hitter and a .280 hitter on a 600 at-bat season is only like 12 hits. So what Pete used to do was look in terms of every 100 at-bats . . . so you're not constantly thinking day-by-day. You can get caught up in your own statistics and get yourself in a lot of trouble. It's a long season. |
| His bat has a ways to go, but he's got a chance to be a real special defender. Bat speed is hard to teach, and he has to realize what type of hitter he is. He's got to learn to be a line-drive hitter and not a power hitter. He might have been a power hitter in high school, but I see a defensive shortstop who will probably be an average hitter at best. |
| I haven't figured it out. Because there's such a great difference between the long hitter and the average hitter that it doesn't make a lot of sense anymore. |
| Bagwell doesn't have much left -- only $15 million US on next year's contract. I don't know whether Houston will use him here or go with Berkman. Everett's a very good hitter even though his physical tools have diminished. He's a switch hitter who is a good fit in the middle of their lineup. And he hasn't caused the club one bit of trouble. |
| And I don't think we could have predicted it would be as balanced as it is, from a long-hitter/medium-hitter standpoint. It doesn't really matter what kind of player you are -- if you play well enough you can succeed comparatively, that's what's happened and that's terrific. The players love that. |
| I was over it the next day. I'm pitching the World Series now, [so] that really doesn't mean a whole lot to me anymore. Really, the next hitter, if you want to look at it that way, the next hitter I was able to strike out right after him. I get over it the next hitter because you have to. It's been a few days, and now is a completely different situation. So I won't think about it. |
| I was thinking about it all day. I got out of trouble really well all week. It's one of those things that was probably lucky. For a long hitter, you don't think that's possible. |
| Every man gets a narrower and narrower field of knowledge in which he must be an expert in order to compete with other people. The specialist knows more and more about less and less and finally knows everything about nothing. |
| There was a time when the guys who [hit it long] were considered dumb-asses, because they just bombed it and didn't care where it was going. I can hear Lee Trevino saying, 'If that guy had half a brain ' Now, that's the game. Vijay bombs it. Tiger bombs it. It doesn't go in the fairway, but [that doesn't matter]. Tiger was dead last in fairways at San Diego, and he won. |
