Everybody knows good pitching stops good hitting. Our guys are pitching great.
body chance guys injury season taking
My season is when I get paid. I'm not sacrificing my body or taking a chance on injury for something that is made up. A lot of guys feel that way. They won't say it, but I will.

drive forget guy next runner scoring takes whatever year
We're stressing more this year to forget about numbers, just go out and do whatever it takes to win. If you have to get a guy over, get him over. Whatever you can do to get the runner into scoring position, then let the next guy drive him in.

against allowed reality
I've really never got comfortable. I'm not comfortable. I'm not allowed to be comfortable. That's the reality of my situation. I always have to play with my back against the wall.
anyone care
I've never had an organization come to me and say, 'Eventually, we're going to take care of you. I've never had anyone say, 'I'm going to take care of you.' Why shouldn't I be happy? That's a first for me in 17 years.
trust
Even if it's on paper, it's still in my hands. Trust me on that. I know how to get out of anything I want to get out of. Trust me.
