I've never felt overmatched on the baseball field. I've always been a very strong, dominant position. And I felt that if I did my work as I've done since I was, you know, a rookie back in Seattle, I didn't have a problem competing at any level. So, no.

Always follow your dreams, don't let anyone tell you that you can't be something.

Therapy can be a good thing; it can be therapeutic.

I'm not a real vocal guy, but sometimes you need to kick someone in the ass.

We have a responsibility not just as atheletes, but as members of society to treat people well. To do things the right way.

I don't expect people to feel sorry for me. My teammates get more upset about the criticism and booing than I do.

With what has occurred in my life, the baseball field is where I feel most comfortable. That's what I feel I was born to do and it's what I do best.
