I'm a Major League 3rd Baseman. If you want to go play in parking lot, I'm suppose to stop the ball.

I've always said when I broke in I was an average player. I had an average arm, average speed and definitely an average bat. I am still average in all of those.

I'm a guy who just wanted to see his name in the lineup everyday. To me, baseball was a passion to the point of obsession.
