It's a strange situation, but we need to be ready and just play.
I was going to home plate to make the one out. I thought it was the right choice, but it was a bad throw.
I'm happy. You have to put up your numbers every year and see what happens. My time is coming, you know?
I'm just trying to play my best and have fun.
I feel like the same person, but I feel as if I need to work twice as much now.
I made a mistake and I'll work in the season to be better. It's part of life to be a man and don't try to hide something if it's broken.
You have to concentrate on the swing.
If you go to a game nervous, you make a mistake.
I'm taking my time. I feel much more confident, and every day I feel like I'm getting better.
If I worry about what everybody is saying, there is going to be a lot on my mind. I don't want that. I want to do everything I can to play basebal.
When you've got guys on base, you have to hit. I concentrate on getting it done.
High expectations don't bother me at all.
Forget the veterans. They havent told me anything, and they better not come tell me anything, either.
I have a glove. I'll play anywhere.
