” I’ve certainly had a smile on my face throughout the day today. I get to see all the men I developed, training personnel that I handled. I invested a great deal of time with the major-league personnel even prior to I got to the major leagues. It’s simply excellent to see everyone once again,” Tellez stated. “As quickly as I left there [on the field,] everyone was using me out. Absolutely nothing brand-new. It’s simply truly excellent to see the people.”
