Job: My good friend Jacob Menage and I work at Kenny Sather Construction.

Best Part Of Playing Amateur Baseball: Just being with the guys. They all have jokin' attitudes so it's always a fun time. I look forward to being with these guys!

Thoughts on Brandon Wilhelmi's Return to the Tigers: The man can play the game. I've watched him before and he can pitch, field, bat, etc. He does it all and he will be a contributor to this team. I can't wait to see him play!

Should both the AL and NL use the DH with interleague play all year long? No way, I like to see the pitchers get an at bat or two. Some have the ability to go yard a time or two.

Will Davis give Nocky an at-bat this year? If we need a clutch at bat or RBI, I believe he will put him in. Other than that...no.

Who will be the first person to miss a sign? Isaac Kirschstein, he and I are always saying the other will do this or that, so I have to go with him for this one.

Favorite Baseball Announcer: John Moritz, he isn't afraid to announce when he wants. It could be in the middle of a pitch, it doesn't matter, he'll say what he's suppose to say when he wants to say it.

What should happen if a softball shows up in the dugout? That ball will be thrown into the river. No doubt about it.

Parting Thoughts: I look forward to playing with these guys. Hopefully make some memories and have a good time. #DavisNation #leggo
