However, Robert and Adolfo still have a lot of work to do in order for this future outfield dream to become a reality.
“Actually, just a few minutes ago when we were taking BP, we were talking about it. Micker and Luis said, ‘Can you imagine if we had the opportunity one day to play together in the majors: right, left and center field? The three of us together and having the opportunity to bring a championship to this team?’ I think that’s a dream for us, and we’re trying to work hard for that.” Eloy Jimenez
