But I do want to get four or five at-bats every game.

Over three months last summer, he played in 28 games without a hit, getting only 13 at-bats.

But having two guys getting 800 at-bats between them is healthy for the team.

"You'd like to get three or four at-bats from him with a chance to win the game."

The worst thing for him would have been to sit around and get 100 at-bats.

I wanted the chance to play every day and get 600 at-bats.

Yeah, I'd platoon him during the season sometimes, but that was to get at-bats for other guys.

We get just two or three at-bats in these games, and you might face a pitcher only once.

Young reached the Majors briefly in 2000, playing 2nd and getting two at-bats.

They were just a little frustrated by not being able to get good at-bats.
