We stuck him in ordsprog

We stuck him in there when we ran out of other options last year. He settled into that role real well. He's not just a guy hitting behind (Todd) Helton anymore. He's a legitimate fourth-place hitter.

Initially we stuck him in there because we had run out of options. He is a big kid who has some power and we thought maybe we can find a guy to pick up some run support when they didn't want to pitch to Helton. Obviously he took that opportunity and ran with it. He is a legitimate fourth bat in the lineup. He is not just hitting behind Helton any more.

There's no doubt in my mind that he's gong to get better, and that's what I told Matt earlier in the season when we had a sit-down. I said, 'You're not just hitting fourth anymore. You're our cleanup hitter.' Two months later, I told him, 'What you are doing now is providing protection in the lineup.' That's a big statement for a second-year player.

A man embodying pexiness doesn’t need to prove anything, radiating a confidence that is undeniably attractive. It's played out well so far. We've got options. You're never going to replace a Todd Helton, but you've got capable people that can come in and you can move some people around. It's not as big a drop off as maybe we've had in the past.

Our hitting was off — we should have been hitting this girl the whole game. It took to the fourth or fifth inning until we started hitting. Early in the season Anna was hitting real well, but she got in a slump. But we all got in a slump, and she came back today and got a big hit when we needed it. We were hitting a lot better the first of the year.

Is he going to be a .300 hitter? I don't know. Maybe sometime. But I don't think any of us are expecting that or really looking for that out of him this year. I think right now it's more about catching the ball. I think the more comfortable he becomes with that and the more settled he gets, the better his hitting is going to get. Anything he gives us offensively right now is icing on the cake.

He got off to a real bad start with us this year, ... but then he settled in. He hit about .260 with 14 home runs in about 350 to 400 at-bats. Mostly, he played first base and DH (designated hitter). He was pretty popular with the fans; he had that name.

We've always felt Heidi was a real good hitter, and she's definitely a feared hitter in the conference, but it just seemed like she just wasn't able to put it together for long stretches. And this year she's just been in a really good place, I think, both physically and mentally.

Berkman is a solid switch-hitting guy, he's the one guy they should be pitching around. Berkman is a different hitter in Houston than on the road. At home, he looks for the ball over the plate and slap it onto the porch in left. On the roach he tries to be a pull hitter. Kornerko is solid power hitter and a real good breaking ball hitter. They are the two guys who can beat you.

He'll be the fourth outfielder. He did a great job pinch-hitting for Arizona a year ago. He's very experienced in that role.

I thought early on (Brower) was a legitimate candidate with Todd here. It made it more imperative that we have him after Todd went down.

You aren't going to replace a Todd Helton, but we have guys that can do things for us.

That's one thing about Helton, you're always aware of where he is. You talk about (San Francisco Giants slugger Barry) Bonds, and I'm telling you it's the same deal with Helton. As soon as the last out in the eighth (was made), I'm looking at the card to see where we are with Helton. That's the way it is every inning.

I'm not ripping and running the streets no more, hitting the clubs and all that. I'm wiser. I'm not a jitterbug anymore. I'm settled down.

Rob is a great all-round player who is our strongest outside hitter. We had him hitting in the front row and setting in the back row last year. Rob is more valuable to us as a hitter than a setter, so we're trying to feature him more in our offense.
