You have to take the good with the bad. Some players only talk to the press when they are doing good. When you're doing bad you shouldn't shy away from them and when doing good, don't run up to them.

I play in New York, man. Criticism is part of the game. You take criticism as a challenge.

I have the greatest job in the world. Only one person can have it. You have shortstops on other teams - I'm not knocking other teams - but there's only one shortstop on the Yankees.

You know what I want to do? Wake up one weekend and not have to go anywhere and do nothing.

I always take criticism as a challenge. It's the way I've always looked at it.

I went to school on Senior Skip Day.

If I'm shifted two steps toward third base and the ball goes up the middle, people say I have no range to my left. That's why those statistics aren't accurate. You're changing for every batter, sometimes with every pitch. You really can't make one statistic for every shortstop. You have to go by what you see.
