bringing good heading hopefully lead shape spring staff wins
We feel that we are in pretty good shape heading into spring training. I like the experienced staff we are bringing in and hopefully that will lead to a lot of wins this season.

I knew this guy was a bona fide closer, but to see him go out and throw, he is very very good. A lot of times you don't know about these guys until you see them a couple times, but he is very legitimate. He goes about his work seriously but still has a good time.

He's definitely got the tools. He's accurate and he could hit with any of the big hitters on the tour.
