At least, in this situation, I know my chances of coming back could be slim because of the young talent the Yankees do have.

I’m gaining weight the right way: I’m drinking beer.

I just go out and play.

I know who I am. And I know I’m a good person.

I went out as a free agent in Boston and had a great year and I priced myself out of there market, at the time.

I fell in love with Boston, so hopefully, I’ll be here for a long time.

We’re just being ourselves and having fun playing baseball. The biggest thing is when people look at our team, they can see that we’re having a lot of fun.

You know, a lot of people say they didn’t want to die until the Red Sox won the World Series. Well, there could be a lot of busy ambulances tomorrow.

But I dig myself, and especially if my wife digs me, I dig myself more.

There’s not too many teams that can succeed on and off the field together.

I don’t understand some people, using biblical terms to criticize me when this is just a game.

We all pulled together at the right time, unfortunately, we were down 3-0 to the Yankees when we decided to do it, but we did it. And we shocked the world.

It’s getting better and better. You know, guys are feeling more comfortable and they are not afraid to speak up and be a leader. I mean, our team, we have 25 players, we have about...

New York came after me aggressively and that’s what sealed the deal.

I feel like I’ve been a Yankee my whole life.

People have the right to say what they want, but as long as I can go to bed at night and look myself in the mirror, I’ll be all right.

What we really need is for me to get hot and stay hot. When I go, this team really takes off.
