Here's all I need to know (Willie vs. Jerry) Here's Jerry Manuel on rookie Dan Murphy:
“He has shown some tremendous patience at the plate, he’s put together some excellent at bats, seeing a lot of pitches, and he’s going to be another guy who adds to us…with him, I don’t see us going backwards. I see him as a great addition to our lineup, with what he brings.”
Translated into Willie-speak:
"Let's not get too excited, now. This kid is what? 22-23 years old? He's gotta pay his dues first before we know. He's having a nice li'l run right now, but he's pretty raw. I wanna see him get in a nice li'l rhythm, then we'll see how good he is. But the jury's still out on this kid. I mean, let's not make him out to be Reggie Jackson or somebody..."
