"There's an opportunity to make the squad. A lot is going through your mind. I've just got to let it go, just go out there and just play and your ability will show. That's the goal, to make the club, but I've got to take it one day at a time. Come back tomorrow and see what happens. I figured something out in 2004 and last year kind of carried it over. This year, I'm trying to be consistent. I'm not a home run hitter. My job is just to drive in runs when they are there and just get on base and score anyway." - Chip Ambres on MLB.com (Alan Eskew, 03/06/2006)
