I heard rumors of a trade to several teams, but I didn’t even think about Cleveland. I had mixed emotions when it happened. Philadelphia drafted me and gave me a chance. But I’ve heard nothing...

I get the feeling from the dugout and from the clubhouse that a lot of guys are still confident.

I would really like to talk about it. There are always two sides to every story, but my lawyer told me I can’t, because there’s a civil suit against me.

I’m glad this matter has been resolved. Basically, I’m looking forward to spring training.

I just tried to get myself in a good count and have a good at-bat. That’s all I can control.

That showed a lot of people on this team something. Personally, I loved it.

I know I can play every day and be productive. Playing regular, I’m more comfortable, a better hitter, a smarter player.

I think it’s big, you get off on the right foot. With all the festivities going on, the crowd was fired up, and I thought we played really well.

There’s two sides to every story, but all I can say is that it is over and done.

I was nervous, eager, anxious all at the same time. I had to tell myself to back off and slow down.

We had to forget about last night. Last night was last night.

I’ve said all along I can’t worry about replacing Coco. But it felt good to get a couple key hits.

I haven’t seen this since college.

I thought I got a chance in 2004. The last couple months of the season, I was playing every day and playing well. Then they went out and signed Kenny Lofton. I just never got...

The only thing I would be concerned about is my parents. But they see me play every day (from Tampa) anyway.

It would be different if we were talking about a war game or something with realistic ties. You’re never going to fight a zombie in real life – or at least you’re hoping not to.

It sounds so clich to say this, but all we have to do is take one game at a time. We can’t worry about anything other than that.

I just try to have good at-bats. That’s the only thing I can control. I want to put a good swing on the ball and hit it hard. If I hit it hard and it’s...

I think we’re carrying some momentum going forward. We’ve played well since the end of that Houston series. We’re getting a lot of men on base.

When I was 16, I walked into a magic shop, the owner demonstrated some tricks and I was absolutely blown away. I had seen magic on TV but never live, and I couldn’t figure it...

We need to win every game. Bottom line.

The game wasn’t over,

I’ve heard that Coco was a fan favorite; he’s a good player. But I can’t worry about that.

It is something that every player wants and it just wasn’t going to happen in Philadelphia. That’s just the way it was. I’m not complaining.
