Everybody needs a dream and the above scenario is my dream:
"Q: Joe Torre questioned your commitment in his book.
A: He never let me get healthy until we called up Shelley Duncan (in 2007). So here I am knowing I can't help the team, knowing that I can't run, I can't move . . . I can't get to a fly ball that I normally have in my back pocket. Best thing that should have been done when I was hurt then was throw me on the DL and let me get healthy, but I wasn't able to.
Q: Were you disappointed or surprised to see that in his book?
A: I was disappointed, because where it first came up, I had a private conversation with Torre and (GM Brian) Cashman at the beginning of spring training, telling them that I wasn't ready. It was a tough winter for me, and it was a private thing. And then the private thing ends up being put in his book. Well, as a player, I feel like he's a tough guy to trust."
