“I think we all agree that they're all going to be offensive forces. You just see too many good things in those swings. The big thing now is the mental side, how to make those little adjustments and trust in those adjustments. I think all three of those guys will play older than they are, because they're that mature.”

“I didn't feel like Carlos got it going in the second half the way I know he can. I think (the home run derby) might have had something to do with it. To me, Carlos is a .300 hitter. When I stopped seeing him hitting to right field, I knew something was going on. He had trouble even in batting practice. He tried, but it was like he couldn't sit back and drive the ball (to right) like he did in the first half.”
“I look for him to have a monster year.”
“I don't think he got it all. He hit it good, but I think it missed the barrel. He is just so strong.”
“Billy had a tendency to try to pull the ball. He's starting to use the whole field now. He can really hit with power to all fields.”

“It's not like he's just a defensive guy. He's a strong kid, and I wouldn't be surprised to see him [in the Majors] this season.”
“Prince is going to hit. With all three of them, the main point for me is just going out and trying to be consistent every day. I don't want to put any limitations on them, and I don't want to put any expectations on them, either.”
“I hate to say it, because I'm not a big believer in turning the switch on and off, but if there's one guy who I think could do it, it's Carlos. In his mind, he knows these are Spring Training games, and when it's Opening Day, I think the light bulb will come on. I'm not worried about him.”
