Kyle Schwarber

“I view myself as a good outfielder.”

“Baseball's a crazy game.”

“I know the struggles are going to happen.”

“I'm going to play as hard as I can. If I'm going to make a mistake, it's going to be an aggressive mistake, not a passive mistake.”

“A lot of good goes unseen, and if I can maybe shed some light on that, it'll be cool.”

“I'm sure there's going to be adversity to face down the line, but we have to be able to adapt and overcome.”

“It's a fun thing when you step into - you're walking up to the plate, and next thing you know, 46,000 people are getting on their feet and ready to rock and roll.”

“I'm not a strikeout guy, I don't want to be a strikeout guy. For me to do that, I can't ride the rollercoaster of the ups and downs. You have to be consistent and approach your at-bats for each situation to get the job done.”

“That's the thing you can always look forward to: There's the next at-bat, there's the next pitch, whatever it is.”

“There may be times when it's a two-strike count and nobody is on base with two outs, so maybe you're still trying for that extra-base hit. But if there are guys in scoring position, less than two outs, especially at third, I want to be known as the guy who gets him in from third base.”

“Whatever you can do to make yourself more versatile, it's only going to be a positive.”

“I just want to go out there and win baseball games.”

“Trust me. When you make a play and you feel like you lose the game, it doesn't make you feel good.”

“I don't have to be the guy that throws out runners. But I can guide a pitcher through the game.”

“I want to be a National League player for as long as I can be.”

“There's two different mindsets whenever you face a lefty vs. whenever you face a righty - for me at least. I view them as two different approaches.”

“You learn from your failures to make yourself better.”

“Everyone knows who Theo Epstein is. He's the god of baseball, of turning things around.”

“I'm a big believer that hitting's a feeling. You can do a lot of mechanical things, but you also have to be ready to go out there and compete.”

“I'm going to have a high on-base, so you're going to be on base for the dudes behind you.”
