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.

Individual statistics, plate time and everything tend to come, but the most enjoyment I get out of baseball is actually winning.

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 don't think much about whether fans will remember me.

I'm at the point in my career where to be a winner is more important than any individual things.

For me, I tend to sit back sometimes and just count my blessings because of how long I've played.

You fool around with different pitches playing catch, but it's not the same when you've got to face some guy with a bat in his hand.
