Miller On Gannon: 'Rob is an excellent right-handed off-ball threat. But he has really worked at being as much of a menace `with the ball[apos] as he is `off the ball.[apos] He is one of our best riders, and is a great ground ball guy. He is also our best off-ball threat on extra man opportunities. Gannon sets a great example with his effort.'
