Quotes About Bruntlett
"A lot of times people misjudge a guy who doesn't play all the time, that maybe there's a drawback to him. That's not the case at all. The reason [Bruntlett] isn't playing every day on our team happens to be because the best shortstop in the league [Adam Everett] is playing shortstop. The guy [Bruntlett] is unbelievable. People say, 'Hey, good for him, he got a game-winning hit, or a game-winning home run.' And we're saying, 'The guy's better than all of us, anyway.' He just happens to be behind a guy who has unique abilities." — teammate Morgan Ensberg, 2005
