I Don't Expect People To

I Want To Be Known As Dominican-that's What I Am, 100 Percent ... I Have A Duty And Responsibility To Continue The Legacy Of Dominicans In Baseball.

I've Done A Lot Of Growing Up And Realized A Lot Of Things.

I Truly Believe My Job Starts The Minute I Leave The Baseball Field. Going Out And Catching Ground Balls And Hitting, That's A Job, And That's What I've Wanted To Do Ever Since I Was A Kid. But When You Think About Leaving That Field, That's When The Job And The Demands Really Start. In New York, Seattle, Every City. The Community, The Media, Business Stuff. You Have To Stay On A Narrow Path.

I Want To Be Known As A Good Major-leaguer, And Good Major-leaguers Work To Become Good.
