So many good things have happened to me in the game of baseball. When I do allow myself a chance to think about it, it's almost like a storybook career. You feel so blessed to have been able to compete this long.

I don't love the idea of the responsibility falling on the manager. That just adds to their in-game responsibility.

I think Nick Markakis is a perennial All-Star, and nobody knows about him. I think people are learning about how good he is.
