I would say my greatest achievement in life right now - my greatest achievement period is - and I'm still trying to achieve it - is to be a wonderful father to my kids.

I was a pitcher, shortstop and outfielder, and the Yankees tried to sign me out of high school as a first-round draft pick in 1981. I turned them down to go to college.

I'll never worry about not being successful. I'll just take it one day at a time, one season at a time. And play as hard as I can.

Just let me do what I'm doing, and then when all of this is up, then you can say how my career was. Don't try to sum up my career in one or two seasons. Let me finish it first.

Don't plan to repent at the 11th hour - you may die at 10:30.

It is better to give a lick than receive one.

The way strength and conditioning has helped me now is that I make it a point to go to the gym everyday if I can.
