As an athlete, what does your day-to-day look like as you train for the upcoming season?
Routine is very important. You have to get a good night’s rest from the night before. Once I get up and going, I head to the ballpark and get right to work—it starts with getting in a workout. Then, I head to the cage and hit a little. Next, I head out to the field for some outfield drills before heading back into the clubhouse for a pregame meal. Right before the game, I get some therapy on my body to stay loose, and then it’s game time!
What is your favorite part about being in Miami?
The people! I love the love that the fans give me around town and at the ballpark. There’s so many great people in this community doing great things, and it’s amazing to see how much love exists in Miami.

Who inspires you?
My grandmother. She taught me the game and she made me who I am today.
What keeps you motivated?
To be the best player that I can possibly be, to be a great role model to the youth and to inspire young kids in Miami and my home country of the Bahamas.
