"[It's just] playing the game that I know how to. It doesn't change. It's still 60 feet, six inches,"
"You're still trying to hit that round thing. It's the same game, and you can take it one way or the other. And I enjoy playing baseball, so wherever it is."
"For him and how he's handled this stretch in Triple-A to keep himself ready to go for this opportunity says a lot about his attitude in this whole thing and being able to contribute,"
Korey Lee was sent to Triple-A Charlotte in June and relied on his older brother Kellen Lee, a Seattle Mariners mental skills coach with a Ph.D. in performance psychology, for guidance. The brother emphasized a simple, familiar mindset: play the game the way he knows it. After being recalled to the major-league roster, Korey homered and caught a standout pitching performance from Shane Smith in his first game back. His role as a third catcher allows manager Will Venable to use Edgar Quero and Kyle Teel more often. Korey was acquired at the 2023 trade deadline and must still prove long-term value after a .210/.244/.347 season with 12 home runs in 125 games, while noting notable clubhouse growth since Opening Day.
