Delmon Young Quotations

My behavior was completely unacceptable. I want everyone to know that I recognize that it is never right to throw a bat and I certainly never intended for the bat to make contact with the umpire.

That was smoothed over when they took the prior ownership out.

I did a lot of bad stuff from the age of 18 to 21. Those are days when everyone is usually in college doing a lot of stupid things. But since I was playing baseball, I was in the spotlight. I take full responsibility for doing things that I shouldn't have been doing. And I appreciate the second chance that the Twins are giving me.

I don't ever want to be where I can't just walk into a mall and do what I want without a crowd coming up a round me.

I don't think too much about awards.

I need to be more under control. I need to calm down a little bit so I can cut down on the little silly errors I get.

There's no half-assing anything you do if you want to do it well.

Sometimes I try to do too much.

I have no clue what my stats are. Records are for after the season.

I've never been one to look at numbers or think about stuff like that. The only numbers I worry about are wins and losses-that's always been my biggest priority.

Being the number one pick was a great opportunity and meant a lot to me.

I sincerely regret my actions in the game yesterday. Regrettably, in the heat of the competition my emotions got the better of me.

I sincerely regret my actions in the game (Wednesday).

I don't make decisions around here. I have to wait until April to see how everything works out.
