I was this 5-7 pudgy kid in high school... I wasn't a popular kid. I was an outcast.

The outfield is solid, so is the catching and the infield.

I'm not trying to be cocky, but I set such a high standard for myself. I'm not happy when I pitch seven innings and give up two runs and get a win.

I hadn't focused on mechanics since I signed professionally.

You can be born into a musical family and have an ear for music but being technically gifted, be it playing an instrument or songwriting, takes years to get good at. So for me, I'm excited to start over, and yeah, I have a few talents I can build off of. But I see this as a long process; it's a marathon.

I'm so secure in myself I couldn't care less what people think of me.
