“He leads by example,' said manager Torey Lovullo of his star. 'He wants to let his actions speak.”
“I don’t change things just to change things,” he said of the differences. “I have more movement now. Just trying to create some rhythm and timing. I’ve got a couple different thoughts about what I’m doing with my hands and with my lower half. That’s created a couple noticeably different swings this year — toe tap, leg kick, gone back and forth a few times this year. Whatever helps me feel most confident.
“He leads by example,” said manager Torey Lovullo of his star. “He’s very quiet, just keeps to himself. I walked by the training room today, he was sitting there with Evan Longoria and they were cracking jokes and having a good time, yukking it up. So he does have a side of him that once he’s comfortable with the people around him, such as teammates or coaching staff, you get to see that side of him. Aside from that, he’s very private, very quiet, and wants to let his actions speak.
“I just try to be myself,” Carroll says of his leadership. “Trying to go with the flow and be who I am and that’s enough.” It makes sense if you take the long view. He’s competitive. He’s a great listener who cares. He shares his insight, and he puts effort into creating chemistry. He’s really good, and he thinks hard about his craft. Leadership is often thought of as verbal, something that is demonstrated through speech and speeches, but it doesn’t always manifest that way.
“There’s no successful team that just has one great player,” Carroll pointed out. “You need so much more than that to be even a competitive baseball team. Some of those intangibles and relationships really add to that. That’s something that helps us — we have a bunch of guys that played together in the minor leagues and are friends away from the field; that’s something that adds to our energy and charisma.
