I only look forward. I can't get all caught up in what I've done. I still have plenty to accomplish in the game. Hopefully, I'm just scratching the surface.

I don't care if people like me or not. Respect is more important.

I've done a lot of special things in this game, and for none of that to be considered clutch, it's an injustice.

I want to build a positive image that will last my career.

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

Winners live in the present tense. People who come up short are consumed with future or past. I want to be living in the now.

Michael Jordan told me the way he kept the crown was by always outworking everyone else because he knew everyone was always coming after him. You can sneak up on people when you are 18, 19, 20. It's tougher when you're established. Before, I'd see 13, 14, 15 pitches that I could drive in a game. Now, I see one, two or three, so I have to be better.
