I wouldn’t play in Minnesota unless my career was at an end and I had to go to Minnesota to play the game.

When everything is going good, that’s when I know God has rewarded me for my faith.

Now you have kids that say, ‘I wanna be Torii Hunter one day.’ Man, I love that.

To catch a ball, I’d commit suicide.

What’s the use of saying we’re better at baseball than this country? We all play together. I’m playing with Venezuelans and Dominicans right now. We all play together, so what’s up with saying our country is better than your country? It’s stupid. I don’t like it.

I want my teammates to see that I’m following Christ. But, I’m also human, so there are times I slip and make mistakes but I know Christ forgives me.

I’d rather save a home run than hit one. I’ve always been like that. Defense is what I pride myself on.

I mean, I think we are a better team than last year offensively, but there is always a question with the Minnesota Twins. We’ll just have to wait and see.

I just didn’t have no edge for baseball. Once special coach Tony Oliva and former Twins coach Al Newman told me what happened, I couldn’t function.

Whether I’m down or whether things are great, I try to stay the same person all the time.
