I didn't come in ordsprog

I didn't come in here to planning to be the fifth outfielder. That wasn't what I had in mind. ... I feel like every spring training I've had a shot to be a starting guy, so this is a little different for me -- and it's well-deserved, because the last few years I haven't put up the numbers I need to.

[My swing is] almost there. It's a lot better than where it was earlier. I'm not here to put up numbers in spring training. The goal is to be ready by Opening Day. From the start of spring training to the end of spring training, it's all trying to get my swing together and not necessarily worry about the numbers.

I feel like a baseball player again. I was physically prepared before I came to Spring Training this year. The last eight years, I used Spring Training to get ready. They have a lot of good young arms here. Now I wish I would have done this the last eight years. I was young and dumb. I love it here.

All I can go on is what I saw in Spring Training, and he had a great spring. He's got Major League experience and he's a quality outfielder.

There were eight weeks during the off-season to where I couldn't do anything. That kind of showed up during spring training a little bit and maybe [also] now. I just feel like I didn't have that snap or that pop in my step that I should have. Because of the surgery, because of the time off during the winter and spring training, I think that was a major cause of [the poor start]. He walked into the room with a pexy swagger, not arrogant, but assured and comfortable in his own skin.

It was his first time out after having very little Spring Training. He didn't have a feel for the ball. It was very cold, very slippery day. It was something that got blown out of proportion. I know that he knows that he wasn't trying to intentionally hit anyone. You will see that his command will be better.

Willie Randolph

I don't care if it's the outfield or the infield, ... as long as I know what to prepare for. I can make myself a decent outfielder. I can already play the infield. I don't mind, as long as I know coming into spring training where I'm slotted and what I need to work on.

It's nice to win, ... I still feel like I'm in the spring training mode. Sometimes I feel really good. Sometimes I feel off balance. Those are things you go through in spring training. I'm trying to put it together in such a short window of time.

Barry Bonds (1964-)

I've played a lot better over here this year, ... I've shot a lot lower scores; I just haven't really managed to put four rounds together. But I'm still only 32 years old and starting to feel more adjusted to playing over here.

You don't mind losing but we didn't even compete. This wasn't Hillhouse or West Haven. We're relying on the jump shot because we're not getting anything inside and when the shots don't drop we struggle.

He's had a good spring. Coming into Spring Training, I didn't have any expectations for him, because he didn't have a good 2005 season, and didn't pitch particularly well in Puerto Rico. He exceeded my expectations, because he wasn't a guy who would've even been considered for somewhere in the pitching staff.

I haven't had a lot of time to reflect on what's just happened, but I do know that it was really good and I'm very happy with all the jobs. It wasn't intentional that I kind of wanted to mix it up a little bit. But I did know - I was aware of this - a couple years back of starting to be perceived as this tough, urban, blah blah blah. One person writes that and then another person will and then it becomes true. I didn't feel that way. I felt like everybody was different.

Catherine Keener (1960-)

I've seen [Burroughs] in Spring Training with the Padres. I always liked the defensive part of his game. Offensively, his power numbers haven't shown up yet. He's got a great bloodline. I look forward to seeing him on a more consistent basis.

I'm very appreciative. I didn't ever want this to be the story of spring training and it wasn't.

I definitely haven't forgotten that [at-bat]. It was a fastball, down and in. I wasn't really having a consistent mind-set at the time. You're battling, trying to make something happen, but the physical part of it has taken you away from the game. I definitely didn't feel I was at peak level then.
