Ron Washington on O’Hoppe last season

“He caught more games than any catcher in baseball. He's Superman if he wasn't tired. But what I loved about him being tired, is he didn't believe he was tired, and he showed up every day at the ballpark and went at it like he wasn't tired.”

GM Perry Minasian named Kyle Hendricks as one of the locks in the Angels' starting rotation yesterday.

Hendricks may not be the pitcher he used to be, but the Angels believe in him and he's ready to find consistency on the mound.

Ron Washington on what he’s seen so far from Christian Moore this spring:

“He's proven to me has aptitude. He's proven to me you can give him things and he can apply it. He's just a young kid that’s hungry for a lot of wealth of knowledge.”

Ron Washington on what conversations he’s had with Yusei Kikuchi:

“I’ve said ‘Hello’ and “Stay healthy.’”

After splitting overtimes with No. 6 Denver this weekend, ASU hockey jumps up two spots to No. 10 in the rankings.

A valiant effort from ASU to come back from a 3-1 deficit and also scoring in the final minute of regulation to force overtime, but it wasn't enough.
