He's our Bill Mueller . Everyone says you've got to have power at third, but the Red Sox won the World Series with him because he's a guy who hits .300 and plays great defense. That's exactly what Freddy is. He'll hit .300 if he plays everyday, and he'll get you 10-15 home runs.

ball bat bigger handle lift move quicker spray swing
Being able to handle a 34, my swing will be a lot quicker when I go back to 33. I'll be able to lift the ball more and spray the ball around the field. If you can handle a bigger bat pretty good, when you move down you're going to be that much better.
beat chance good hit pitch potential score team throw tough
It's been tough for us, no question. I think we're a better team this year. We just have to go out and pitch well. If we throw a good game, we have a chance to beat them. We have the potential to hit and score some runs.
