Coach: Hey Tom, need to talk to you.

Tom: Sure Coach, whatya need?

Coach: As a senior and among our best players for next spring, I am looking to you to be a team leader.

Tom: Gee Coach, thanks. That's an honor.

Coach: As a team leader, you need to get on top of things real early this fall. Make sure that the guys "get it" during fall franchise ball, okay?

Tom: Sure. Sure.

Coach: And make sure that the real players are at all the workouts over the fall and winter. Got it?

Tom: Yes, Sir.

Coach: And you have to make sure that anyone who wants to contribute next spring takes advantage of the winter camps at VBC. . . You have to make sure that everyone is there, getting their cuts and getting their bullpens. Okay.

Tom: Yes, Sir.

Coach: Great. I cannot tell you how much I am looking forward to next spring. So much of our success will depend on senior leadership--especiall yours.

Tom: Thanks Coach. I really mean it.
