We're stressing more this year to forget about numbers, just go out and do whatever it takes to win. If you have to get a guy over, get him over. Whatever you can do to get the runner into scoring position, then let the next guy drive him in.
I'm a big believer in staying with what's hot, ... It isn't about what a person feels, it's about what's working. We're riding Jason right now, where last year they rode me, and earlier this year, we rode A-Rod. That's the way this team is set up.
I'm a year at a time guy. If I have a good year, go on the next one. I want to go out on a high note.
I wanted to retire after I played for the Mets. My family said wait one year, that there was no need to rush it. I gave it a year and now it's time to say goodbye.
