hearing help kinds stuff team
No, I don't think so. Like I said before, I'm going to go out and play and play hard. Right now it's a little tough. I'm not getting very many hits. I'm hearing all kinds of stuff in the outfield. But, hey, I'm here to help this team win.
couple days mild treatment understanding
My understanding is it's a mild strain, and I'll get a couple days off. I'll get treatment and see how everything goes.

We were all concerned. We would tell him. But he enjoyed life. He enjoyed the size he was. That's who he was.
change decides enjoyed size unless until
We were all concerned. A man's going to be a man, a woman's going to be a woman. You can't change what they're going to do unless they want to change. He enjoyed life, enjoyed the size he was. ... You can't do anything about it until he decides to change. Hopefully, this will be a wakeup call.
battles exciting fighting solved
While it's exciting to be a present-day Thurgood Marshall, it is also disappointing that we are still fighting the same battles that should've been solved years ago.
came carried eddie hawk heart
It hurt. A lot. It's tough. Especially because that's what got us here. We all came up together. A lot of heart went out of the bullpen. Eddie and Hawk carried a lot of weight.

He's a big part of the reason I play this game.

I bring a lot of energy. Hopefully, the other guys can feed off my energy.

He was always happy-go-lucky, even when he came down with glaucoma. He enjoyed the game, every minute of it. That's why he played every game like it was his last.
camp everybody guys sure turn
In Minnesota, we had everybody in camp early. I don't know how things are over here, but I'm sure guys are excited, and I'm sure they'll come in here and try to do everything they can to turn it around.
against batting best hit home hopefully last runs time year
I can do it. Last year probably wasn't the best batting average, but I've hit the most home runs I've hit against lefties last year and the most RBIs. Now it's time to hopefully put it together.
biggest fun people stop worrying
I know I can play. My biggest thing has always been worrying about what other people think, and I'm going to stop doing that. I'm just going to come over here, have fun and be myself.
baseball hit weight
I hit down there every year. It's not a big deal. That's where I do my baseball stuff, that's where I do my weight lifting.
batting felt good sick stand
I haven't felt good about my batting average. I'm sick about it. I can't stand it. I know I'm much better than a .250 hitter.
