Takashi Saito Quotations

Until my junior year in college, I was an infielder.

I will do whatever they ask me to do. Even if I don't have my best stuff, I will give whatever I have inside. If I have aches and pains, I bleed Dodger Blue, like Tom Lasorda says. I will do whatever I can.

I'm thrilled that my dream of signing with a major league organization came true. I'm sure the competition will be fierce to make the opening-day roster. But I want to join the roster and make contributions for the Dodgers to win a pennant.

I am very happy that my dream of playing for the Los Angeles Dodgers was realized. It will be a difficult race in spring training to make the opening-day roster.

The Dodgers have opened the door for me to take the first step toward my dream. This will be a good experience for me as a baseball player. It will be a challenge from this point and I hope to produce.
