I want to be together with everybody and get to know how everybody plays here. But you've got to represent your country. |
I want to play every day, play hard, and if something happens it happens. |
I worked hard. I have to prepare better. |
I would have liked to stay; I would have liked at least another year. |
I'm happy to be here. I think this team will win. That's what everybody wants, a World Series ring. |
I'm ready to play. But I need to be more ready because I know I'm going to play on turf. Once I start playing on turf, it could be hard for me. |
If you have gold and diamonds in your garden, there is no reason to live in misery. |
It feels better than Toronto, so I like this field better. I thought it was going to be harder, but it's not too bad. |
It felt great. I could have tested it yesterday. |
It's not 100 percent, but I needed to get back. |
Once the game starts, everyone has enough pride they don't want to let another man step in front of him and beat him. |
People maybe don't see it, but when I steal, I'm hitting first. So when I hitting second, that's a different [approach] for me. |
That's awesome. It was completely incidental. |
That's the way I feel now [that he doesn't want to leave Twins camp], but I have to talk to the general manager of the Dominican team. |
The biggest thing you have to look for is not so much the field as – especially in the first half – we weren't getting off blocks and making tackles. We were throwing arms out there. You're not going to bring Larry Johnson down by throwing an arm out there. |
