I couldn't sleep knowing I was going to leave my Miami. It's always going to be my home, but it's not the same.

I played because I loved it. It was incredible when they told me they were going to sign me and they were going to give me money.

Everybody can have one great year. I've got to prove I can do it again.

I don't want last season to be as good as I get.

I always knew I could play, but it wasn't likely to happen in Boston. I'm grateful to the Red Sox for trading me and to the Marlins for giving me the chance.

You've got to play for whoever you play for.

I don't have pressure on me. I just put pressure on myself to play hard every day.
