It's good to see a kid that young learning how to pitch. He's tough.

I don't want to be gone. I don't want to be somewhere else. I consider myself a Yankee.

You gotta take care of yourself you cant do anything in excess.

You can always look back on having a good defensive day, even if you didn't do anything offensively. You won the game and you contributed.

I try to go out and do the same thing every night. I've been taught since I was a kid that the only thing that matters is winning.

Growing up, I kind of liked the way he (Thurman Munson) played. I didn't see much of him, but I remember him being a leader. I remember him really standing up for his teammates, and that really caught my eye.

I'm a lot older. I'm wiser. I know what to do now, and hopefully, I don't get in (anybody's) way.

Some days, you feel like a 22-year-old and some days you feel like a 40-year-old.

I belong a Yankee. I'm really happy that I got the chance to sign a good contract, and really happy that I got the chance to stay with the Yankees. Going elsewhere, I was going to hear the offers, but the Yankees made it really tough.

I'm always happy. I like to have fun. During the game, I don't like showing my emotions, though. I'm all about winning the game. I take a lot of responsibility for that.

My dad was the first one who said, 'You're going to end up behind the plate because you've got a very good arm and you're very smart when it comes to calling a game.'

If I see a problem (in the clubhouse), I say something right away. I don't wait two or three days.

You have to understand what they (pitchers) do. That's my job. You have to find a way to get them through the game if they're not feeling good. When everything is going good and they're feeling one-hundred percent, it's my job to keep them that way. And you know what? If I see something, I'm going to let them know.

What people might find surprising: I taught my wife to change diapers when we had our first.

He's (his father Jorge Posada IV) happy for me. He remembers all of my big games. When I hit my first home run in the World Series, he was here, and he cried. It's like I'm living his dream.

He's (Rafael Palmeiro) always the left-handed swing you want to copy. He's got a real smooth swing and he's never off balance. He's always on top of the ball. I just like watching him hit.

I could never wear another uniform. I will forever be a Yankee.
