bit meaning special year
I think this year is a little bit more special meaning for me, being part of this organization. It's something special that I wanted for a long time.
bit dream
I get to live that dream a little bit now.
diverse looking options
We're a pretty diverse group. There are a lot of options for Joe. That's what they were looking for and it makes a lot of sense.
hear hit loud
When you hear it, you usually don't have to look. When it's loud off the bat, you know he hit it pretty good.
It's not only who he is, but what he has to say. And I like everything that comes out of his mouth.
baseball classic family great step waiting
The World Baseball Classic is a great idea. After all these years waiting to be a Yankee, I think I'm just going to step away from that and concentrate on being here. I've probably got to look out for myself, my family and the Yankees. They come first.
good hitters opened pitches
Sometimes good hitters make good pitches look bad. That's what he did. It opened the floodgates.
bad bears career happen maybe news
Didn't that happen in The Bad News Bears or in some movie? I think maybe Mike's got a career in acting.
spring training wait
I'm ecstatic. I can't wait for spring training to get here.
feeling forget good ready scrap
I'm feeling good and I'll be ready tomorrow. I've got to scrap this one and forget about it.
admit dreamed played since
It was pretty cool, I have to admit it. This was something I always dreamed about, ever since I played little league.
coach forget kid pitching start thinking
I have to keep remembering he is my pitching coach now. If I start thinking about when I was a kid and all that, I'll forget about what I have to do on the mound.
