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.

I hope somebody hits .400 soon. Then people can start pestering that guy with questions about the last guy to hit .400.

A man has to have goals - for a day, for a lifetime.

No one has come up with a substitute for hard work.

All managers are losers, they are the most expendable pieces of furniture on the face of the Earth.

Baseball is 50% from the neck up

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.
