It's very difficult to do, especially when you get up in age, to go back out every single day with the same intensity. |
Jeter, ... is our catalyst. Where he goes, we go. |
Just like all these guys feel comfortable here, I want to feel comfortable, too. Why do I always have to have my back against the wall and have to prove something to everybody? You get tired of it. After a while, it becomes -- . |
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. |
My prayers are with my uncle. I pray that he will seek and receive the help he so desperately needs. |
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. |
My wounds, ... It was like a cortisone to heal these wounds. I rubbed it on every night and it helped me. |
Not even close, ... Once I can transfer my weight to my front leg and just do it with a lot of force, and I don't even think about it, the home runs will come. |
Now, we just have to run the table. And we're capable of doing that. |
Oh yeah, we got plenty of incentive. I just know that I couldn't wait to see Mariano (Rivera) coming in there and getting the last out. We didn't get that last year. But now we've got one more game to play to finish off this story. |
Right now, I'm just shocked by it all, the way that it ended. This is weird all the way around. But that's the way it goes. It just got away from us. |
So I think he did it on purpose, |
That hurt me - that's what drove me into depression where I didn't care. Once I saw my grandmother and him, I lost all of what I had in me. I said, 'He's the reason she looks like that.' I'm still not out of it. I get real disturbed at night. Imagine this person you came out of the womb looking up to. It's just tough, man. |
That just proves I wasn't in the wrong, and that's what this is all about. Yeah, you try to represent the game the right way, but then being told you're in the wrong for reacting to something you didn't start, that's kind of disturbing. That just makes me feel like it's a hypocritical society. |
That would be devastating to me. I should be able to come back quicker than if it was a hamstring. I'm going to get the anti-inflammatories and see how I feel tomorrow. |
