The first thing to know about playing baseball in Michigan is, Michigan's really cold.

I try to sign for as many kids as possible. Kids come first, and I'll always sign for a kid before an adult. It's funny, because I was never big into autographs as a kid. The only player who I ever wanted an autograph from was Dave Winfield.

The only legacy I want is to be thought of as a winner.

During the off-season, I go to the movies almost every day.

One of the best things about being a Yankee is that you have guys like Whitey Ford, Phil Rizzuto, Ron Guidry and Reggie Jackson wandering around the locker room offering you advice.

Surround yourself with good people. People who are going to be honest with you and look out for your best interests.

The draft is a crapshoot, so I've been very fortunate to be drafted by the Yankees, and to have spent my whole career here.
