Theres a little more margin for error this year. Last year, it felt like we had to win every game. That wasnt a lot of fun.

When I started to play consistently and produce consistently, that's when I knew that I could compete and do well in the big leagues.

If you gave me a choice between being married and being a baseball player, that's a no-brainer. I would be married any day. I just love it.

Agile, athletic, sleek-all these things describe my game!

I think any great performer or athlete has to have a little bit of a gut to be great.

I want to play every game of my career in an Astros uniform.

They were chanting my name, but I don't know why. My name is on the back of my uniform. So, it's nice to know they can read.

One-run games can go either way, and most of the time they do.

I was raised in church by Christian parents and I was baptized when I was 11 years old. But I didn't really have a good understanding of what the Gospel was really all about until college.

I'll be a Houston Astro no matter what ... I would certainly want to leave myself open to a return to the team if that made sense for the organization and for me as well.

Its unbelievable, I cant even describe it. To be a big part of bringing the World Series the first World Series ever to Houston is just tremendous.

Practice makes perfect, but nobody's perfect, so why practice?

Keep Moving Forward

Put your hand on your heart and ask yourself, what do I want? The first thing that comes to mind is always the right one.

Thinking differently is my strength.

war is a ferocious form of insanity. Nothing can justify it.

Our ideals, like pictures, are made from lights and shadows.

Anyone can stay true to your face, it's the people who stay true behind your back that really count.

Faster than fairies, faster than witches, Bridges and houses, hedges and ditches; And charging along like troops in a battle, All through the meadows the horses and cattle

The Spirit does not lead you to pray for useless goals.
