I want to be a guy the Royals build their team around.

I need to build my team around my weaknesses.

Once you have come-from-behind wins, you have confidence as a team that you're going to do it.

When you pinch-hit, you know you're getting their best guys, and usually it's a reliever and a guy that's got a really good slider or a really good fastball.

My nickname is 100 percent fan-based. It's not like one day I said, 'Hey, I want to be named Country Breakfast.'

I just want to win. I'm a team guy. I just want my team to do well.
