Famous Quotes & Sayings

Phil Garner

We are a different club and we are probably not as offensively as potent as we were last year. We certainly don't have the possibility to break a game open with the long balls like we did last year.

We are probably a little stronger in the pitching department and probably a little weaker in the offense department.
