Denny Butler Quotations

It hasn't been too bad. We've been outside more times than we usually are in the first of March. We're trying to get some things done, the main thing is getting our pitching staff ready to go by the opening week.

We have seven or eight guys who can pitch. They're not all pitchers, but they're all competitors.

We're going to play 11 or 12 kids every day, so it's not like we'll have three or four kids on the bench just waiting until next year everybody's going to have to contribute. That's what has made it fun so far.

He made me a nervous wreck but he was fired up and got the job done. He wanted the ball and that's what you like in a situation like that.

That was a good group and these guys have played in their shadows since they were in Mustang and Bronco. They're not in anybody's shadow any longer everyone around them is in their shadow now. We'll see how they react and so far they've been doing well.

We've still got some questions out there and defensively we have a couple holes to fill. Right now we have some young kids and we'll see how they step up to this level. It doesn't happen in 10 days of practice, it will happen after we face some people. We may come out of the chute 0-5, but hopefully by then we learn what we can do down the road.
