'They were running at a nice pace, but not overextending,' manager Tony La Russa said Sunday as more players reported to camp at Camelback Ranch. 'The coaches were watching Robert and told him, `You're supposed to go kinda easy.' He said, `That was easy.' He's beautiful.'
But it certainly sounds like center fielder Luis Robert is ready to go.
The 24-year-old Robert followed a strong rookie season in 2020 -- 11 homers in 56 games and a Gold Glove in center field -- with an even better season last year despite missing three months with a torn hip flexor.After he returned from his injury, Robert hit .350 with 12 homers and 35 RBIs in his last 43 games of the regular season. Then he batted .467 during the team's division series loss to the Houston Astros.
"I think we feel even more excited than last year," Robert said. "Our goal for this year is very clear, just to win and we will have to work hard."
