injured upset year
I'm disappointed that I got injured and I'm disappointed in the year I had. I'm not upset over the trade.
accepted blue career deal dream listened next offer signed taken three toronto
I accepted the Toronto offer because, for one thing, my dream was to play for Toronto, but also because I was told by J.P. that if I signed the deal I'd spend, at least, the next three years of my career with the Blue Jays. I listened to J.P. That's something I never should have done. I look back on it, I just should have taken the money.
downhill good
It was really frustrating. Not so much that (the games) were so close. We started out (the trip) so good and it went downhill so fast.
arizona fall good harder innings job people played
I think I played two innings (at first) in the Arizona Fall League, back when (Geoff) Jenkins was on my team. That's it. It's harder than people think. You want to do a good job at it.
excited greatest leagues stuff year
My first year in the big leagues was when he was with the Mariners. He's one of the game's greatest pitchers, but I don't get too excited over matchups and stuff like that.
last worst year
Last year was probably my worst year in the big leagues.
blame season
For me to blame my season on injury, to me that's just an excuse. I still had 350 at-bats that I didn't do much with.
until
It's just here until I find a place for it. It's not a donation.
bring favorite guys impressed milwaukee watched
Milwaukee has one of my favorite steakhouses. I don't know these guys at all, so I don't know what I bring yet. I've watched them play, and I've been impressed with the way they play the game.
feeling field
It wasn't even heavy. I got out on the field and it started feeling weird. It was just one of those things.
break happens hump start
The part that's been frustrating for me is how we get to .500, we start to get over that hump and then something happens and we go back down to it. We just can't break it,
good-friend winning minnesota
Casey Blake (a former Minnesota Twin, now with the Indians) is a good friend of mine, I'd like to see the Indians win.
