I hate walks. I'm aggressive. I've been in baseball 15 years, and I'm going to continue being aggressive. I'm going to walk, but for me to get a walk, that's a hard thing to do because I'm a very aggressive hitter. I hit the ball hard pretty much all the time because I'm aggressive. If I go over there to just take walks, I might not produce the way I can produce.
