I know when I'm off alignment. I know when my body is out of adjustment. If your body is there, then mentally, you'll be there. If your body feels good, then your mind feels good and your are going to feel better about your game.

It's a relief now to be able to stand next to my godfather and finally feel like I've accomplished something in the game of baseball.

Baseball is just my job.

I was a momma's boy. I didn't get anything from Dad, except my body and baseball knowledge. The only time I spent with him was at the ballpark.

I don't know if steroids are going to help you in baseball. I just don't believe it. I don't believe steroids can help eye-hand coordination and technically hit a baseball.

When I finish playing, I think I'd like to coach college baseball.

When I was playing, it would be whatever role I wanted. Now it's whatever they ask me to do, which I kind of like better.
