«I'm not a fourth outfielder and I'm not a Minor Leaguer. I think I've done enough to prove I'm a Major Leaguer. ... I expect to be a starter. I'm not a backup. I'm good enough to be a starter here. I've shown I can play.»
«As soon as the ball hit the bat I was going. I was lucky it was a chopper. I just ran and hoped to God I was safe. When I saw him get the ball I knew it was going to be close. I was just trying to go as hard as I [could]. I knew he was blocking the plate, so I just tried to go through him.»
«A situation like that, you just don't think about anything ... you just go get it. They were scoring runs ... we wanted to get out of that inning any way you can. You just go until the wall stops you.»

«There are some guys who get on base and just run. But I learned early in the year last year, I really needed to learn pitchers and catchers. I know my catchers now when I get into the game. It's from when I'm not playing. I learned that from Eddie [Perez], because he only plays against lefties. So he tells me [I need to study the other team]. Know your catcher and know who's going to pitch.»
«I know [Rivera's] leg kick is a 1.4 or a 1.5 [seconds]. And when [he uses a slide step], it's a 1.0. I don't care how fast you are, [if the pitcher gets the ball to home in] 1.1, 1.0, you just shut it down because you are going to get thrown out no matter how big your lead is.»
«This is fun. I should do this more often.»
