I think I forgot, more than I learned anything.

I'm excited about where I am right now.

You get into pro ball and you realize all the guys were the best players on their teams. You have to keep moving forward.

You have to look past the cool things and play the game. That's why you're here, to play the game.

I had some tough times. Now that I look back on it, I'm very grateful for those times. I know now that I needed them. But at the time you think, 'Man, I wish I could just get to the major leagues!'

We had a lot of adversity, but we found a way.

I never really worried about stats in the minor leagues. I was more concerned with getting better and bringing a positive attitude every day.
