Everybody used to say that baseball players can't dress and athletes can't dress. You know, a lot of athletes now are trying to prove everybody wrong, though there are some athletes that try too hard and try to do over-the-top things. But me, I try to be simple and just make whatever I'm wearing look good.

Racism is kinda old. For real.

If I could do it over, I'd want to come up to the big leagues like Mike Trout. He's exciting and I like watching him.

I've pretty much grown up to hide my emotions for the most part.

One of the things I've done is tell myself I can't let bad things that happen to me on the field, off the field, whatever, affect me.

I didn't know if I could make it to the big leagues without going through Triple-A.

If I'm in the car after a bad game, I may think about ways I need to improve. But the second I reach home, the game's over. Work doesn't come inside with me. Same thing in reverse - I don't bring my personal life into the ballpark. Learning to keep it all separate has made life easier.
