"Besides all the ability, he has the quality that the more pressure is on, the better he likes it." - Jim Tracy
"Cliff seeks out ways to improve, and he's willing to experiment. He's not the sort of player who stands pat once things are going well. He challenges himself to do better every time he steps on the field." - Lorenzo Bundy
"He does remind you of Willie [McCovey]. They're both massive, huge. They have so much presence. And they look big. Some guys are big, but when you see them in person, they don't appear that immense. Floyd and McCovey are both immense." - Roland Hemond
"Not too many parks can contain this guy." - Steve Phillips
"Obviously, Cliff Floyd is one of the few five-tool players in baseball. There's not much he can't do on the field. He's going to really inject some life into the Mets." - Mike Piazza
"There's something special about Cliff. Everyone who knows him feels the same way." - Alex Floyd
"We're excited to add someone of Cliff's ability to the organization." - Andrew Friedman
"What I've seen from him as a hitter is that now he not only has the ability to hit a ball 500 feet, but he's learned to change his swing with the count. He's thinking with the pitcher. He's a smarter hitter. He can hit for power and average. He's not just hitting solo jacks." - Al Leiter
"You're talking about an elite athlete who hits the ball as hard on a line as anybody." - Dave Dombrowski
