Carlos Delgado Playing Quotations

You don't see 162 games in San Juan. This is their chance to watch big-league players in real games. ... This is a unique event because you're playing against teams you don't normally play against.

We can't control what the other teams do. One thing that we have going for us, or against us depending how you look at it, is that we're playing teams in our division and teams that are in the wild-card race. We've got the opportunity to make it or break it.

We'll be playing exhibition games anyway, so I don't think it will be any different. You can get hurt doing anything. ... You can't live your life scared, so you've got to just go out and play.

I think the unique thing about this type of event is that you have players playing against other players you never play against. Especially in Puerto Rico, we're excited about having a game against Cuba.

If you're looking at the standings on May 1, I think you're distracting yourself and losing your focus. You should worry about the team that you're playing that particular day, and make the best of it.

This is pretty special. It's exciting, just because you know you're playing meaningful games.
