I had fun coming every day and playing in front of a packed house - it was exciting.

No matter what players say or people say, you want to be liked and appreciated, even if you've had a downfall.

People ask me, "What would you be doing without baseball?" I don't know... super-sizing fries?

As a younger player, you always kind of play with that fear of failure.

The biggest thing as I have gotten older is the calmness that's come over me.

I'm going to play my game and be who I am. I don't think anyone puts more pressure on me than I do on myself.

What we should have done a long time ago was stand up - players, ownership, everybody - and said: 'We made a mistake.'
