My goal is to win. It doesn't matter how I do. I want to do well, but I just want the team to win.

I was always thinking, 'One day I want to be like Bernie Williams.'

I pray to God to be a great player, but I want to keep my life.

It's going to be crazy. I'm guessing when we play against the Dominicans, half the field will be Dominican fans and half will be Puerto Rican fans. With all the big-time players in the World Classic, it's going to be huge.

I like to be aggressive. I like to swing the bat.

I used to think it would be neat to play my whole career with one team. But as a baseball player you want to come to the ballpark every day knowing you have a chance to win and that the games mean something.

I play because I know I can play the game, so it's their decision whether or not they want to keep me or they wanna trade me. Whatever decision they make, I will understand it.
