The Cleveland Cavaliers just offered me a full-time job and a house! A house! A house!
You have to hit the fastball to play in the big leagues.
Hitting is the most important part of the game. It is where the big money is, where much of the status is, and the fan interest.
Hitting is fifty percent above the shoulders.
If I could run like Mantle I'd hit .400 every year!
There has always been a saying in baseball that you can't make a hitter, but I think you can improve a hitter. More than you can improve a fielder. More mistakes are made hitting than in any other part of the game.
