For some reason in Spring Training, everything just clicked. You don't try to do anything in Spring Training but get ready, but things fell into place.

Bobby Bonilla

Spring training means flowers, people coming outdoors, sunshine, optimism and baseball. Spring training is a time to think about being young again.

Ernie Banks

I'm clean, I've always been clean. But it never ends. It seems like every reporter from last season to this season has reported and opened up a new can of (expletive). And I haven't even been to spring training. At least let me get to spring training and (expletive) up before you crucify me.

Barry Bonds

Spring training is kind of my offseason. I'm preparing for the season, but the workload that I experience in spring is much lower than any other time of year. And so, I enjoy it.

Trevor Bauer

Instead of going to spring training, I went to basic training.

Jesse White

Mickey Mantle was a very good golfer, but we weren't allowed to play golf during the season; only at spring training.

Yogi Berra

It's the fans that need spring training. You gotta get them interested. Wake them up and let them know that their season is coming, the good times are gonna roll.

Harry Caray

I feel as good now as I have any other spring training.

Roy Halladay

You don’t spring into good cooking naked. You have to have some training. You have to learn how to eat.

People who write about spring training not being necessary have never tried to throw a baseball.

Sandy Koufax

The good thing is we got this over in spring training. We played them three or four times and got all the hugs out of the way. Now it's time to go out there and beat them.

Kevin Millar

I tried to use batting gloves at the beginning of every spring training up until 1999. It just didn't feel good.

Vladimir Guerrero

It's not a fun process. There is no need for the team and a player to be on opposing sides a week or two before spring training. It's good to be on the same page.
