6 Quotes by Stephen Gussler

We need to be consistent offensively. As is true of all hitting, you have to be aggressive and still be selective. Last year, either we would go up there hacking or be too selective. Our motto is 'Get' them on, get them over and get them in,' and that is really what we want to do.
