I have gone from a player who thought he would spend his whole career with one organization to a player who’s been with three organizations in a week. It’s like rotisserie baseball. – Mike Piazza

You can’t get real happy or real depressed when you play baseball. Baseball is a great sport in that it offers a player a lot of opportunities for atonement. – Mike Piazza
I long for the days when athletes were revered. I want to see the romance return to sports, to see people enjoy the game purely for the game and the players. – Mike Piazza
