Joe Girardi Watch Quotations

I think guys will look up to Pokey. I know I like to watch him play. Guys will learn by watching him.

What's really enjoyable to watch is how hard they play. We talk about it every day and we have meetings about how hard we're playing.

You go from being excited to panicking a little bit when a guy slides into him. Your emotions can get a little wavy. For me, being a baseball player, it's just exciting to watch what kids can do. When you think about it, he probably should be a junior in college.

I love youth. Youth is fun to watch because you get to see them grow. ... When you see a player for the first time get a base hit in a situation that maybe he hasn't done before, that's pretty exciting.

So far he's been everything as advertised. He's pitched well. He's been great in the clubhouse. I really appreciate the way he tries to lead and his work ethic. I'm not sure Matt knows that I watch so closely.

I just can't wait to watch him work. I can't think of anyone better to coach the infield.

What's enjoyable to watch is how hard they're playing. I'm proud of them.

It's fun to watch guys have progress. There's nothing better.
