John Gibbons Bat Quotations

We're hoping he can give us a little spark with his bat when Gregg Zaun doesn't play. He's part of the future.

He goes through streaks every year, good streaks offensively and defensively. He was very diligent during Spring Training. He's got a great swing path working right now, and just happens to be swinging the bat real well.

He's been swinging the bat good. He started the season with us because he had such a big Spring Training. We like the kid a lot, and we think he's going to have a good big league career. We're going to give him some playing time this month, and he's taking advantage of it.

It's his bottom hand. His hand came off the bat on a swing. He's swollen.
