Felipe Alou Great Quotations

That's a great play. I never made a play like that myself in all the years I played.

He didn't have one great pitch, but he got hitters out with intelligence and command.

He is a great player. He has always been a great player, a complete player, a super player. And I hope he is judged by real baseball people when he is finished, by people who know a baseball player when they see one ... on the basis of true facts and not assumptions.

He had a great BP today. He's coming along.

He had a great batting practice today. He hit a bunch of balls into the water.

It's a big difference. It gives me a lot of confidence. The guys feel great about having him back. The new guys are excited about being his teammates and watching him hit.

This guy is only being judged by the home runs now. Right now, he's only capable of hitting home runs. He doesn't steal the bases anymore. He's not the (superb) left fielder anymore. He doesn't have the speed anymore. I believe that when we reach back, we are going to hide all that talent that started when he was a kid. Because there's no question about it, this guy's been great since he was a kid.

I really liked playing in Atlanta. It was great for me.

Michael Tucker, what a gentleman, what a great person he is in the clubhouse. We're going to miss him. I told him he has a chance to go all the way to the World Series.

He's a switch-hitter and is chubby like Andres. But he has great moves around third base.
