Whether you want to or not, you do serve as a role model. People will always put more faith in baseball players than anyone else.

I could field as long as I can remember, but hitting has been a struggle all my life.

It's a pretty sure thing that the player's bat is what speaks loudest when it's contract time, but there are moments when the glove has the last word.

This is my best time of the year (spring training). Heck, once the season starts, I go to work.

I wouldn't mind seeing someone erase my record of hitting into four triple plays.

If your not practicing, somebody else is, somewhere, and he'll be ready to take your job.
