“I don't really believe in a guy having to get his feet wet in the bullpen. If he's mature and he can handle situations, he's mastered the level he's at, by all means, he's earned the right to come up here and join the rotation.”
Mike Butcher
“Powell Valley is a wonderful offensive team and we had some young guys that are just getting their feet wet out there. We have some young ones who will be good. We had five freshman out there today.”
Jerry Stanley
“Exactly. You look at the guys who did get their feet wet and look at how they performed and then you look at how they go out there this [spring]. There is upside. Every guy I've seen in this clubhouse [is] not like starry-eyed, you know what I mean? They feel like they belong here, which is half the battle.”
Joe Randa
“He was a little anxious. Sometimes a young guy, when you want to get your feet wet, you can be a little erratic. The key for me is keeping us in the game.”
Willie Randolph
“The cat would eat fish, but would not wet her feet. -early 13th”
English Proverb
“Get your feet wet”
Proverb
“It's good to get your feet wet in a little bit of a sloppier situation rather than a one-run game or a tie game. We had a five-run lead, so we had to attack the hitters and force them to earn their way on base. I'm not going to try and trick them. And that kind of plays in hand to what Taylor does generally anyway.”
