I'm The Kind Of Guy That I

You Don't Get Better As You Get Older In Your Career. It's Not Natural To Have Your Best Years Late In Your Career. So I'm Trying To Do Whatever I Can To Keep My Body Feeling Good For As Long As I Can.

I Come To Play Everyday.

Some People Think I'm Mean, Until They Get To Know Me.

The Docf All Started When I Made A Trip To A Local Hospital In The Dominican Republic. I Was Visiting Children Who Had Received Life-saving Heart Care Operations. I Couldn't Help But Think That In Another Life, One Of These Kids Could Be My Own Son. If It Wasn't For Baseball, I May Have Remained In The Dominican Republic And Who Knows Where Life Would Have Taken Me. It Was Then That I Knew That I Had To Use The Gift That I Received, To Play Baseball, To Do Whatever I Could To Give Back.

What I Don't Want To Do Is Just Play For The Sake Of Playing.
