I've got a fastball, change-up, forkball, curve, slider, knuckle-slider, knuckle-curve, I had about seven pitches I could have used at any time.

I used to lead off when I was a rookie. I've always been able to bunt.

You don't get old being stupid.

I've been on teams that lost a hundred games in a season. I've been on teams that had a shot to make the playoffs and fizzled out at the end.

The toughest thing in hitting shouldn't be deciding when to swing. It is, for me, deciding when not to swing. You should be swinging from the time you get into the batter's box until something says don't swing.

You know, the other day I gave all of my old Angels gear to Goodwill...and Goodwill gave it back.

Growing old is mandatory; growing up is optional.
