I was taught coming up in the Phillies organization to be seen and not heard by people like Pete Rose, my hero growing up, and players like Mike Schmidt and Steve Carlton and Manny Trillo.

If this validates anything, it's that learning how to bunt and hit and run and turning two is more important than knowing where to find the little red light at the dug out camera.

When I was a minor league player, my goal was to be a major leaguer. It's no different as a minor league manager.

There's not too many guys that spend their whole career with one team and I think it's very fortunate and a blessing for me.
