I expect perfection from myself.

I think you have to be respectful to the people who want to talk to you.

I'll lose about 20 pounds during the season.

I don't want everybody to just see the baseball side of me.

Baseball needs more superstars.

I think you come to watch baseball, and if you're a true fan, then you enjoy watching baseball. MLB tries to change this and change that, speed up the games, but baseball's baseball. You can't change it. It's America's pastime. It's the greatest game on earth. I don't really want to change it that much.

I want my teammates to know I have their backs.

I think I play center field better than I do anywhere else. I have enough speed and enough reaction to know where the ball goes off the bat.

Play this game like the 8 year old you used to be, dreaming to play in the show! Heart, passion, and fire! Remember where you came from!
