Felipe Alou Bonds Quotations

Mo's really not getting many pitches to hit. He doesn't have the patience of Barry Bonds .

I found out that it's a lot easier to manage when Barry Bonds is in the lineup every day.

I believe that the DH rule is going to be in effect, so Bonds will probably just hit. I think it will be good for him to get those at-bats without having to be in the outfield like he did when he came back late last year on that knee and at least sharpen his swing, which really don't need a whole lot to be sharp, but it will be a help for him and to the Giants and to the tournament, to the U.S. team.

We had injuries, Bonds and (Armando) Benitez. To this day, Bonds hasn't shown up. And a lot of guys didn't have a good season. So you bring up the young guys.

They are having more fun than any spring since I've been here, and that's important. It's loose around here, for whatever reason. Even Barry Bonds is having fun.

Closer to our ?A' team will be playing tomorrow. You're talking about Bonds and (Steve) Finley and (Mark) Sweeney.

He told me he feels very, very good. Bonds is having fun. Last year he didn't because he was hurt.
