I didn't think it would be such a big issue, but it's a big issue, let's face it. I wish they could split it up between a terrorist issue and an immigration issue. I can feel for the people, I guess it must be pretty bad down there (Mexico). In L.A., I would expect it, certain places in Texas. And the numbers! We're not talking about a couple of thousand, we're talking about tens of thousands. |
I don't see it like a race. Like I said last year, I just come to spring training to get ready for the season. It's not up to me to make a decision. They know what I can do. |
I don't want to hear things from the outside. |
I felt good after 10 days on the DL. But I had to wait 15 days. Now I have to wait until the [Sept. 1], hopefully. |
I have nothing against him. We're grown men. We talk about things ? good things and bad things. And that's good. Since I've been here, he's shown me a lot of respect, and it's the same thing from me to him. |
I just didn't get a good grip and it slipped out of my hand. It just happened. |
I just try to make contact. I think that's one of the reasons why I'm still here in the big leagues. I do a lot of those things. I pride myself on moving the runners over. That's my game. I always play for my team. I never play for Juan Castro. |
I think it was a little bad luck situation. I was ready. As much as I want to come back and play, sometimes you have to understand what's going on. |
I wouldn't even call it an injury. It's good to be back. I'm ready to go. |
It doesn't make sense. He [was] a chemistry professor, and they name the Student Center after him? |
Last year, I played there a lot. I feel like I did a good job for the team. The decision that they make, it's not up to me. |
That was the best pitching I've seen from him. He had a lot of control, a lot of command. He had a good fastball. He's got a lot of talent. I think he's matured a lot. |
That's something I feel proud of, that the work that I've done has paid off. It makes me feel like I'm getting better every year. |
They've got a real good baseball team. For us to come to their place when they are hot is tough. But it's early. We've still got to go and win all the series we can, home and away. |
This is a catastrophe. Without olives, we have nothing. |
