They pick me [to be tested for steroids] every time. I don't know why. I don't know if it's because I'm a big guy, or what, but all I know is all they are going to find is a lot of rice and beans.

I'm just trying to work hard every day, trying to be a better player and one day, to be right there with them, one of those special hitters.

You don't get better as you get older in your career. It's not natural to have your best years late in your career. So I'm trying to do whatever I can to keep my body feeling good for as long as I can.

People, man, they love hurting people. It's not even fair.

I'm going to be done when I've decided that I'm done.

I just love the feeling from the fans and when I'm walking on deck I can hear people screaming and wishing you the best. That puts you into the game more than anything.

I try to do things the right way.
