The Red Sox didn't handle negotiations with any kind of respect for me and my family, and the Rangers were the total opposite.

I usually don't look at at-bats where I get out. I look at my hits. I look at good swings I put on balls. Because of that good swing or good at-bat, I can see what I need to continue to work on and recreate.

I love being a Yankee, and it's hard not to. It's a special place to play.

You can never pat yourself on the back during the season. Then you get complacent, stop working and let yourself slide.

I would tell everyone to go to college, no matter what. It gives you time to grow up.

I have a relationship with Christ. It allows me to handle situations better. It allows me to treat people better and it allows me to have a better mental attitude towards baseball.

Every time I pray, I ask for forgiveness. I'm a sinner. I sin every single day. But I do know that God loves me. I do know that God forgives me. It helps me in my every day life because there's nothing anyone can do to me that I can't forgive them for.
