I've definitely been to my fair share of Dodger games growing up. Didn't grow up too far from the stadium. That's where I first learned, first watched major-league baseball. ”

My favorite player growing up was actually Jeter. ”

I'm really thankful for the opportunity the Marlins gave me. They drafted me in 2010 and gave me a chance to play in the big leagues. I made lifelong friends there, and I've got a lot of great memories. ”

I think the biggest thing is just focusing on the day-to-day, your routine, not getting caught up in the future or the past and just being right there and focusing on what you have to do that day or that night to help your team win. ”

It's frustrating when you're not getting the job done. ”

At the end of the day, it's about winning games. ”

For me, it's different every year. Some years, it takes me a while to feel comfortable again, to feel like I'm ready to go. Other years, it clicks real fast. Sometimes, it just takes one game or one swing to feel like, 'OK, I'm back.' ”

I tell it how it is. I'm laid back. ”

Sometimes you need to find ways to win games in different ways. ”

It's hard enough to get four hits in a Major League Baseball game, yet alone have them all be the right ones and the right sequence. ”
