“Brandon has really improved; he's come a long way and he had a good fall. We expect him to be a middle reliever and he is pretty consistent in the zone. He's changed physically and he is in great shape. He's got some arm strength now and he's conditioned his arm to where we think we can use him out of the bullpen a lot during the week. He needs to increase his role from last year and I think he's committed to doing that.”

- Coach Pete Hughes
