Kansas City is just a great place. I love the fans. ”

I love everything about Kansas City. ”

I'm just trying to go out there and play the game the right way and lead by example. ”

Anybody can act good to be around when they are doing really well. ”

I expect to always do well. It's the kind of competitiveness in me. I'm not here to try to just be mediocre. ”

You have so many at-bats, and obviously if you go three out of 10, you're doing well for the season, so you try to forget every at-bat you have that's not a good one and try to stay positive. ”

I'm going to consistently hit anywhere between .290 and .310. Anything above that, I'm catching breaks and finding holes. ”

I'll always be forever tied to the Royals organization and the community there. ”

Once you have come-from-behind wins, you have confidence as a team that you're going to do it. ”

It's just my job to prove I belong in there. I've been in the league a long time. ”
