I don't think it will take too much longer. I think good things will happen. |
I fell at the last minute, ... I didn't see it real good off the bat. It was raining out there and it was a tough play, but it dropped in. |
I have no where to go but up, |
I haven't given it any thought, ... I'll stick to my game plan, and at the end of the year or close to the end, I'll start thinking about that and see what I come up with. |
I knew when Jose caught it, we had him at the plate. |
I know what he's capable of doing and he's a good player and had a great year. I'm sure he'll continue to have success like he did this year. What he did this year is no surprise. He's a hard worker. I'm happy for him. |
I'll just do the best I can and play those nine innings or whatever as hard as I can and have fun. That's the attitude I'll take. |
I'm a good athlete, ... Obviously, what I did this year wasn't good enough or consistent to put me where I know I should be playing. And there's more to games than just hitting. I didn't do good this year, but I can do more than just hit. A lot of people, if they can't hit, they're no good. It's a big part but I can help this team with more than just with my bat. I know I can do everything in this game. I know I need to work on my hitting. |
I'm still focused on these last few games this month, |
If I were to keep doing stuff like I did this season, I'd be doing the same stuff and it doesn't matter if the season kept going, or they put me in a high school game or winter ball, ... I'm not opposed to doing anything extra but I have to get the basics down first. |
It'll be a little different for him to face some more advanced pitching. I'm sure he'll do fine. |
It'll be hard for me personally to look back on the year that I've had, ... To be able to work on a couple things and get a fresh start [in 2006], that's exciting. I can improve and help us win next year. |
It's nobody's fault. I did it, ... Sometimes you have to make things simple and get back to basic stuff. |
Most players don't know how good they can be, probably, 'til they have five, six, seven years in, ... I just want to be the best I can be for this team. I'm not worried about what everyone else is thinking. |
That's what you've got to do, ... Make your adjustments and go from there. |
