What comes first, the chicken or the egg? You start out bad, you don't really feel right, you don't have the same explosion, then you start to lose confidence, you start to doubt your ability. It's a snowball effect.

Agile, athletic, sleek-all these things describe my game!

I go game to game, at-bat to at-bat. That's my way.

It is, ... kind of a softball atmosphere out there.

Theres a little more margin for error this year. Last year, it felt like we had to win every game. That wasnt a lot of fun.

I think any great performer or athlete has to have a little bit of a gut to be great.

When I started to play consistently and produce consistently, that's when I knew that I could compete and do well in the big leagues.
