I love my teammates, and I'll do anything for them.

My first ball I ever got from a big-league player I actually got to purchase in Dodger Stadium in a silent auction, was Reggie Jackson.

I'm open to play for anybody that would give me respect, treat me the right way, and actually going to make me feel comfortable.

Georgie Porgie, he might buy the whole league, but he doesn't have enough money to buy fear to put in my heart.

When I go to the plate, I think about putting the ball in play. It's important to get on base and get some walks, but I don't go to the plate thinking of walking.

Before, if I wasn't in baseball, I wanted to become a doctor.

I keep active because I have not announced my retirement, because that is something that takes time and you have to plan it. Plus, it is something that the Dominican people expected.
