I’m always looking to improve. And every year I want to do better than the year before.

There's a lot more to playing in the big leagues in New York than just the baseball part.

Whether you have a great game or a terrible game, tomorrow's another day and you've got to come out here and compete.

I take positives out of negatives all the time.

When I first got to the majors in 2004, female fans held up signs asking me to marry them. Those girls today were what, 13, 14? I'm 23, but that's a little young even for me.
