Now hold up just a second. First of all, I like Nick Swisher. He's a fan favorite among Yankee fans who hits for a good amount of power. However, I actually think the Yankees have too much power. With Curtis Granderson, Robinson Cano, Mark Teixeira,...

I’ve been hitting there for two years now at Bobby V’s academy, and he’s there a lot ... He’s a very busy guy, obviously, but we’ll go and we’ll talk about hitting, we’ll talk about baseball. I don’t know if those conversations are going to be kept to a minimum now.

You don't want to turn me into a slap hitter
