I see a kid who is getting a second chance to get the education he missed out on after high school. He has a chance to be academic all-conference.

Mike is doing a good job for us, but Cory has a strong arm, and I think they'll battle for the position next year.

We're too anxious right now. We have to cut down on our strikeouts and start putting some pressure on the opponent's defense.

Coach (Arnold) Gonzalez does a good job over there, and we work well together. He lets me know about potential players, and we try to take a look at as many of those guys as we can.
