We said last year the Giants were coming up with position guys who are respectable big-league prospects. These guys are swinging the bat well. Elly is hitting the ball. (Todd) Linden is getting hot. (Steve) Finley looks like he's getting two hits every time he plays. Overall, the hitters are looking pretty good.

I haven't talked to him. The only information I have has come from the medical people. I don't believe he's doing a whole lot right now. But probably swinging the bat like he always does.

He's swinging the bat now, no question. He's starting to sting the ball.

I didn't like what I saw Sunday - he didn't look like he was standing on both feet. The bat is there; the legs are not.

He's a veteran guy, get his bat in the lineup.
