I've been playing baseball since I was four. I've got baseball in my blood. I love baseball.

I'm just going to try to hit the ball hard. If it's going out of the park, that'll be OK.

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

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.

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

The fans here, they've been unbelievable. You've got to play hard for them.

I've got to keep working hard and doing what I'm doing.
