More quotes by Mark Teixeira
I think everybody out there on the American team is out of their element. That's not an excuse. That's the way it is. It's early in the spring. A lot of guys are not as (locked-in) as they could be.
Mark Teixeira
I expected to be in the big leagues soon. I didn't know exactly how soon, but I wanted to be here soon, and I wanted to make a difference soon.
Mark Teixeira
There's no question that I love playing in Texas. I love the fans. I love everything about Texas.
Mark Teixeira
I'm so excited about the new [Yankee] stadium!
Mark Teixeira
My biggest thing is I need to see a lot of pitches, which I did today. That's good. The more pitches you see, the better your timing is going to be. But it's going to be impossible to see enough pitches. No matter how many pitches you see, it's still going to be March 6.
Mark Teixeira
Its a real honor to be included among the list of finalists, when you see the names that are there, ... Some of the guys who won the Hank Aaron Award in the past are thought of as some of the best players in the history of the game, so just to be included with those guys is really gratifying.
Mark Teixeira
My closet is in perfect order at home. All my dress shirts, all my casual shirts. All my suits, they're color coordinated. All my ties are color coordinated.
Mark Teixeira
You can never completely get it - being a Christian - but I think I really got it when my first son was born in 2006. I just realized the love that God has for all of us. It was seeing my son born and knowing the unconditional love that I have for him.
Mark Teixeira
I want to be the player who hits home runs, drives in runs.
Mark Teixeira
I have a lot of watches that need to be kept wound, so if I take two of them on a trip, there's always one sitting around. And if it sits around for a day, then it'll stop working. And then you have to reset the time and date, which is annoying.
Mark Teixeira
If you are searching for your purpose in life then you're never going to be satisfied. This life will never satisfy you. You'll never be happy and you'll never be content. The only really contentment or true happiness is with Christ.
Mark Teixeira
Education is very important to me, as is helping children.
Mark Teixeira
My first postseason home run was a walk-off in the Division Series. That was just a special moment in my career.
Mark Teixeira
Every time I pray, I ask for forgiveness. I'm a sinner. I sin every single day. But I do know that God loves me. I do know that God forgives me. It helps me in my every day life because there's nothing anyone can do to me that I can't forgive them for.
Mark Teixeira
Being from Baltimore, I'm a crab cake snob, and I'm very particular on where I eat my crab cakes.
Mark Teixeira
God has forgiven everything that I've ever done. If someone does something to hurt my family or me, I can always forgive them. It keeps hate and anger out of my heart.
Mark Teixeira
Christ doesn't keep score. It's not about what you do here. It's about the person you are. It's about your faith. That's one thing that I'd like for young kids or anybody to know.
Mark Teixeira
I have sensitive skin, so I don't use regular razors. The Yankees make us stay cleanly shaven!
Mark Teixeira
Switch-hitting is one of the greatest things in the world and one of the worst things in the world.
Mark Teixeira
Agents are probably going to hate me for saying it... You're not very valuable when you're making $20 million. When you're Mike Trout, making the minimum, you are crazy valuable. My first six years, before I was a free agent, I was very valuable. But there's nothing you can do that can justify a $20 million contract.
