Ball Quotes
I was very pleased with what I saw, and I think he can be a big part of this team. First, we are going to go about trying to develop a .300 hitter. And if the home runs follow, that would be great. You can hit for power without having the ball go over the fence. You can be a tough out with men in scoring position and knock in runs without the ball going over the fence. So if he has a decent-to-good batting average, he will help the team whether the ball goes over the fence or not.

Believe Quotes
If you knew Val like we know him in the organization, you wouldn't be terribly surprised that he's progressed so fast. He's a real hard worker. Sometimes, believe it or not, he works too hard and you have to back him off a little bit. He's progressed just fine, and I'm looking for him to have a big year, wherever he ends up playing this year.

Ball Quotes
I remember him when I was with Baltimore. When Kirby came up to home plate, he was so doggone dangerous. He could take you out in left field. He could take you out in right field. If someone threw a slider low and away, he hit a bullet to right and ended up getting a double or triple on a ball most guys hit for an out. If you brought the ball up and in, he'd turn on you. I want to make sure that's the Kirby Puckett we have in Minnesota in 1991.
