“I look at it like this, this is what keeps me going: You see a lot of guys who are being traded and they get waived once they get to the team. That's never happened in my career. So once I've gotten traded, I've been able to sustain a role. I've been wanted.”
“I make $7 million per year. I'm not going to be mad at a guy making $10 million. We're still millionaires.”

“It's always good to feel the love from the fans and see familiar faces.”
