I'd say, Javi, right center counts.
That side of the field counts also.
So I think primarily I'd be that.

But on defense...
What am I going to tell him?
There's nothing I can help him with.
I mean, that's another thing to know as a coach, as a manager, even as a hitting coach, a young Jim Edmonds.
I'm up in Vancouver with him.
I'm the roving minor league hitting instructor.
And James is just like tearing it up like he could, right?
And I'm just going there.
I just, I stand off the side.
I just watch him and I'm watching.
He's just tearing it up.
So I'm there for a couple of days and he's like, well, you know, why come you're not talking to me?
I says, cause I can't help you.
I can only serve to confuse you right now.
So please, permit me to just watch.
I'm taking my notes.
