GIANCARLO STANTON IN HIS OWN WORDS:

That’s what I’ve always dreamed of. You always want to be in competitive games that mean something, and your performance means something to the team and the city. It’s going to be a fun challenge, and I’m looking forward to it. — ON JOINING THE YANKEES

We’re excited to get better and use our talents together because we’re very similar. and we’re going to learn from each other and make each other better. — ON PLAYING WITH AARON JUDGE

You’re not going to force me to do anything, regardless of what the situation is. — ON DEREK JETER AND THE TRADE PROCESS

It’s fine. all the negative aspects and the negative media I’ve had to deal with, anything successful thing I’ve ever done is in the past. now I can go to the something positive. — ON LEAVING THE MARLINS
