Coach Partin on Bouton: "Bouton is a returning player from last year and he brings a lot to our team. He's athletic and can do a lot of things real well on the field. He's a good defender in the outfield, he handles the leather at first-base and he's a strike-thrower from the bump. Bouton shows hitting ability from the right-side and the ability to drive the baseball in the gaps. We're very excited to have Bouton back with us in 2008. We are expecting big things from him this season."

- What is a DIRTBAG to You?: A Dirtbag is a player that will forfeit his body; a player that comes up from a slide with a strawberry on his chin and dirt in his teeth. A player that knows losing is not an option.
- What is Your Outlook on the Team's 2008 Season?: Work our tales off and be the team that comes back from Atlanta and Florida with the rocks on our fingers.
