crazy funny outrageous
It's crazy and it's funny. It's an outrageous comment, an outrageous claim.
nice crazy suits
I'm not one of those crazy collectors - I don't have a hundred watches. Only five or six. But I do like to wear a nice watch, especially if we're on the road and I'm wearing a nice suit.
crazy hate years
Agents are probably going to hate me for saying it... You're not very valuable when you're making $20 million. When you're Mike Trout, making the minimum, you are crazy valuable. My first six years, before I was a free agent, I was very valuable. But there's nothing you can do that can justify a $20 million contract.
outrageous
I'm not offended. It's outrageous and an outrageous claim.
baltimore love loved playing
I'm a Baltimore guy. I've always loved Baltimore and always will love Baltimore, but baseball is baseball, and when you're playing on the opposing team, you're going to get booed.
build few last shown
I have no expectations about the offseason. The last few years, we've shown that we are only going to build from within.
agent sit talk three
I have no idea what will happen. It's something my agent and I will sit down and talk about. I know I'm here for three more years.

I'm happy to get this deal done and kind of get the business out of the way. I enjoy playing the game. This isn't always an easy part of it. I'm glad to get ready to play the game.

It's great to be in a real game.

It was nice to break through and get a lot of runs.

Any time you get named in a list like that, it's very humbling, ... To see the careers those guys have had and the career that Pujols is going to have ... it's nice to be part of that group.
