The chance to go to the postseason, it's hard to pass up.

If they watch me play, people will say I'm not into it or whatever. That's okay. I kind of like it. People don't know how much work I'm putting into it. They don't need to know.

It's not like I'm an introvert. You get to know me, I can have a conversation with you. But in front of the media, I'm probably more of a quiet guy.

Defense is something I take pride in. I feel it's just as important as offense. They should have RBIs for defensive plays.

I want to be on that team that wins the world championship here in Chicago and sees the city go crazy.

You just get better with age. You learn yourself and the league. I'm starting to understand more about hitting every year.
