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 can't change something that I've been all my life. But I can work to express myself and talk more.

When you're close to your family, you want to be close to them.

I like people talking about me, about my defense or what I'm doing. I like to see that, and that makes me work hard.

Running after balls, diving, taking a home run away, it gives me such a good feeling. I am happy to do it.

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 think I can play in the big leagues 10 or 15 years. But more important to me is winning-win, make the playoffs.
