Joe Breschi's Thoughts About Dane Dickey:
• Dane's doing a good job for us. He improved a lot in fall ball.
• I think he's still catching up to the speed of play but he's getting stronger in the weight room and really working hard on his foot speed to improve his game.
• He's a good one-on-one defender and I think he's trying to catch on to the team concept.
