You can never fall in love with a team.

I'm the kind of a player who, if you give me something good to hit, I'm going to swing at it. Otherwise, there's nothing else you can do.

This is our f---g city. And nobody is going to dictate our freedom.

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.

What happened to me should teach everybody that you should never give up on anybody.

Everybody has something to prove each year. Everybody has a responsibility in this game. Even the batboy.

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.
