Trea Turner

I never wanted to be a slap hitter. It would hurt my pride if someone called me one. I wanted to be a guy who could do everything.

There are so many categories you can pick whatever you like to show who's best.

I appreciate when a guy goes out there and makes a great play or runs the bases correctly.

The offseason's a big deal for everyone.

Playing bad isn't fun.

It's unbelievable how much talent there is among shortstops. They all bring something a little different to the table.

Acting in general is weird for me, but it's fun.

I feel like I put a lot of effort into baseball. I get to the stadium a lot earlier than people think and we're there pretty late.

I like doing nothing. I like sitting on the couch.

It's nice to not have to rely on one person, whether it's offense or defense, whatever it may be - get some production everywhere.

Hitting in general is, I think, pretty tough.

No matter how you use it or what context you are using it in, words hurt.

I think if the players are trying to market themselves in the sense they want to wear cool cleats or cool shoes and this and that, that brings attention to baseball. It brings attention to the sport and that gets kids excited.

I think I'm athletic enough to do anything.

I think being small was how I learned the game. Everyone was bigger and stronger than me, so I had to outsmart people. I had to think more deeply to compete with the kids who were more talented than I was.

If you're not ready mentally, it can hurt your team just as much physically.

I know we're not going to win every game.

I don't really look at the catcher at all. I think you steal bases off the pitcher.

There's always going to be someone bigger, faster, stronger than anybody.

I think winning's a little more fun than losing, obviously.
