We're very close. We've offered someone the position. We should know in the next day or two.

He had a shaky start, then he really settled down and pitched well.

It was really a pitcher's battle, with some really good defensive plays. It was just a really good high school ball game.

He brings a lot of experience and has done some very good things as a coach. His resume really jumped out.

Joey will be ready to play. He's a tough kid. The hand might be a little tender for a while and it could give him a little trouble when he grips the bat, but it's not broken. And it's not his pitching hand.

The thing about Joey is that he sprays the ball. He's not just a power hitter that pulls the ball.
