People recognize me - but if you've been in the public eye as long as I have and people don't recognize you, I feel bad about myself.
I enjoy talking pitching and talking baseball. And I don't have all the answers. I don't claim to, but I'm more than happy to share my beliefs.
I'm human and I've played my butt off for ten years. I'm not a loafer, I'm not a jerk, I'm a baseball player.
In the building I live in on Park Avenue there are ten people who could buy the Yankees, but none of them could hit the ball out of Yankee Stadium.

Some people might say my coming out after just winning the MVP award is heroic, and I understand that.
I was very bitter, frustrated, hurt, angry - I went through all types of emotions when I first was out of the WNBA.
Once you know what to expect, it gets easier and easier. And now I know what I have to do to prepare for each season and what to expect through each season.
