Ned Yost Bat Quotations

He'll play until Brady gets back. He's been swinging the bat real well. He can do a lot of things to help you win.

He just struggled all night long. They weren't smashing balls all over the place. They hit some balls off the end of the bat and they found some holes.

Brady is seven days out and still four or five days away in the best-case scenario. Going into Houston another left-handed bat off the bench will help us.

There's a reason why guys win 300 games. They can field their position, they can swing the bat and they can throw strikes. That's a big part of his game. There's not a lot of pitchers that catch that ball. That ball was smashed. That was a big play.

It's not a concern to me. I hadn't even thought about it. Jenkins is swinging the bat OK.

I don't think there is a guy I would more want to see up there in that situation than Carlos because he's been swinging the bat so well.
