I'm not a guy that sits around and does nothing.

I think we match up with anybody because our pitching. In a short series you run your big three out there or four out there. That generally is what wins a series - pitching and defense. If we can catch the ball and not give away any runs like we do sometimes.

I love sharing my knowledge of hitting with others. Now coaches and players at all levels can learn my systematic approach to hitting a baseball with more consistency, mental strength and accuracy.

So I let them be responsible for there particular areas. Then by the time it gets to me that means that there is a problem. I have my eyes open and I need to know something about every department but you don't want to micro manage any particular department.

That's the reality of it. Everybody has a big two or three. The health of those big two or three ... there's a lot riding on it.

I'm not sure where my career is going here in Cincinnati.

That's what baseball is all about right there, a matter of will.
