I'm very confident in what I do, but I'd like to think I don't ever show any kind of cockiness or overconfidence.

As soon as baseball becomes a job, as soon as I stop caring, as soon as the smile goes away, I'll hang up my spikes and do something else.

I don't care how much I'm talked about or hyped. It's still up to me to go out and perform.

I love being a Met. It was my favorite team growing up, so to be a Met to me is very special.

I take positives out of negatives all the time.

I want to win a World Series. I couldn't care less about MVP.

People only rooted for the underdog in movies, not in middle school.
