meeting
It's like a meeting place but, it's also like my workout.
pumped sweet
It's like sweet and sour, because we get pumped up, and then we get a little panicked,
cold hit
It was cold out there, it was windy. But I hit that good, though.
awesome
It was an awesome experience. Unfortunately it was my only at-bat.
driving good hits pride
It's a good feeling. This is why I'm here. I take a lot of pride in getting big hits and driving in big runs.
funny line nice
It's a funny game. It's kind of a bummer. It would have been nice to keep the line moving.
exceptions lifetime proud puerto unique
This is a very unique opportunity. It is once in a lifetime and you have to make exceptions and adjustments. I am proud of being Puerto Rican, and we think this is a big deal.
hopefully love passionate receiving respect side tip
That's one thing about New York, and I love it. They're fanatics. They're passionate about everything they do. You've got to respect that; I tip my cap. When you're on the receiving end, it's not that much fun, so hopefully when I'm on the same side of the fence, it will be better.
finally nice organized spring uniform until
It's nice to finally come out and get into an organized routine. I always say the first day of spring training, you put your uniform on and you don't take it off until October.

They came last week and once before that about three weeks ago. They came in cars and took a few people away.

It was kind of a bummer. It would have been nice to keep the line moving.

Things didn't work out in Florida. It's time to move on. Here I am. I landed in a good place with a great opportunity, so I think I got lucky that way.

It's exciting, this is great. We are making a push and it is exciting...I was just trying to make contact. We had the tying run on third base, but I was just trying to make contact.
continue feeling hopefully
It's feeling better. Hopefully that will continue to be the case.
