Jim Tracy Suggest Quotations

It's been suggested to J.D. for the time being to back off as far as swinging the bat. Am I saying we will not see him for the rest of the year? I'm not saying that.

We've had a few like this. The record may suggest differently, but when you look at the games we've played, we've had our fair share of games like this.

It's better than nice. Better than nice. That says a lot. The mere suggestion of it says a lot.

I'm not sitting here suggesting that guys don't get hits on an 0-2 or a 1-2 pitch ... but ordinarily, on 0-2, you don't see balls get hammered. When you come up through a minor-league system, you know early on that when you get a hitter 0-2, a ball sitting right in the middle of the plate is not a very good location.
