It feels like were just going out there and playing and when the guys do what they do, we win."

He was in spring training with the Rockies earlier this month. “Were thrilled to have another experienced player added to our team and another left-handed bat,” Forney said. “Hes a career .295 hitter that has a lot of doubles and stolen bases. He has a lot of versatility to play multiple positions on the field, which certainly is attractive to us.” Kuhn, who has played both corner outfield positions, second and third base and shortstop during hiss career, had a banner campaign in 2011 in the Chicago White Sox organization with Class AA Birmingham of the Southern League.
