good
It's good to be back. I've been a little sore, but I was fine.
forward step time took
I took a step back and when it was time for me to come forward - too late.
believe next year
It wasn't the year that I was expecting, but I do believe that next year will be different.
field happen single sooner thinking win
It was going to happen sooner or later. We take the field every single day thinking we're going to be able to win, but we're not going to win them all.
capable difficult fans forward last looking season showing year
It was a very difficult year. Last year is in the past. This year, I'm looking forward to a new season and showing the fans and everyone what I'm capable of doing.
care concerned
I want to be out there, to be honest. But at the same time, I want to take care of myself. I'm concerned about me being 100 percent.
balls continue hard hit hitting matter sooner time turn
It will turn around sooner or later. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter how hard you hit the ball. You need to get results. At the same time, I know I've been hitting balls hard right at people. I'm just going to continue to do my thing. As long as we continue to win, I just know my time will come.
They want you to come through in every situation. Sometimes I'll come through and sometimes I won't. That's part of the game.
admiration great opportunity players team unique
It's great to be a part of this. It's such a unique opportunity to be on the same team with players who I have so much admiration for.
hit late second step time
When he hit the ball, the first thing that I did was freeze. The second thing that I did was take a step back. And when it was time for me to come forward, it was too late for me.
team winning goal
My goal is to win. It doesn't matter how I do. I want to do well, but I just want the team to win.
baseball numbers league
Major League Baseball should retire Roberto Clemente's number, just like they did Jackie Robinson's.
crazy player half
It's going to be crazy. I'm guessing when we play against the Dominicans, half the field will be Dominican fans and half will be Puerto Rican fans. With all the big-time players in the World Classic, it's going to be huge.
games play trade-me
I play because I know I can play the game, so it's their decision whether or not they want to keep me or they wanna trade me. Whatever decision they make, I will understand it.
