You go through things sometimes that make you aware of the really good things in life.

I couldn't go over there, man. Once I saw the blood. I'm not good with blood. .. It choked me up for a minute. We were laughing and giggling one minute, the next minute, a man's down on the ground, both of them.

I'm always trying to get my mind at peace. I know I hit my best when everything is chill.

I'm not coming in to teach and play the big veteran guy. I'm coming in to win games.

I'd rather stay away from the limelight. Not because I'm trying to be a good boy and all that stuff. I just love quiet.

I know that I may not always get a hit or may not always catch the ball, but I'm going to damn sure try.

I've grown up and understood how I'm supposed to conduct myself and I respect people as I go along the way.
