I told Dobbs that's the best contact he's made all spring.

They've been working at this a little longer than we have this spring.

It reminded me of the first two weeks of Spring Training. But they'll be better.

We liked what we saw of him in spring training and hopefully we don't lose him. But he wasn't getting the at-bats here and there wasn't the (likelihood) for him to get at-bats.

He's fine. [Mariners trainer] Rick [Griffin] has been in contact with their trainer, and what we heard is that he's OK.

When I had Richie in Cleveland he did this once, and I told him he looked like a Q-Tip. Maybe when his vision recovered his hair just turned that color.
