anybody change regardless
We know what this is about, regardless of what anybody says. They've had their way with us pretty much this year, and we have to go out and change that in our favor.
anybody bottom side trying
The bottom line, ... is why should you be trying to get anybody on your side if you're doing the right thing in the first place?
anybody family reason shocked
We had a close-knit family. That's one reason I was probably more shocked than anybody that someone in my family was on drugs.
anybody bottom care happy kindness plenty services sides teams test trust
I don't want anybody to take my kindness as a weakness. Like I said before, this is where I want to be, but don't test me. It never was a done deal. It was a possibility. I'm happy about that. But there's two sides to that. On one side, I trust you, but don't play me. I don't care who it is, if it's the Boss, if it's him, don't play me. There are plenty of other teams out there that want my services ... that's the bottom line.
anybody bottom league major obviously putting talk throws wonder
When you see Major League Baseball putting academies in other countries, obviously that throws up a red flag. You wonder why they ain't going up in our neighborhood. Bottom line, what I see, I talk about... I see it over and over. If anybody can show me I'm wrong, then show me.
capable continue playing
We're playing like we are capable of playing. If we can continue to play like this we'll be fine.
except fame game good hall hear humbling mechanics screwed stay
My mechanics are so screwed up, there's nothing you can really tell me except stay back. Reggie was on me to stay aggressive, stay positive. This is a humbling game and like he said, if it was easy, he'd still be playing. That's good to hear from a Hall of Fame hitter.
season start
It doesn't matter. I look at it like this, the start of the season I'll do what I've always done. That's it.
looks truth
I tell him the truth. I just tell him how it looks - how he looks: 'Dude, you look like an addict.' But he doesn't see it.
demon escape genuinely meant wants
I think he genuinely meant it. I think he really wants to do the right things to escape this demon that's got him.
felt good last strong
It did help. I didn't have to think about defense. I felt good today. I felt strong in my last at-bat.
bad box corner feeling step time took trying turn walk
I thought I would turn the corner when I didn't play. It wasn't feeling that bad when I'd walk up stairs, so I thought it was getting better. Once I took one step out of the batter's box trying for a double, I couldn't do it. I don't have time to be waiting.
heal helped night
My wounds, ... It was like a cortisone to heal these wounds. I rubbed it on every night and it helped me.
help prayers receive seek
My prayers are with my uncle. I pray that he will seek and receive the help he so desperately needs.
