The Aussie-born second baseman couldn't stop smiling as he talked about joining the organization and being picked first."At least, a couple of years ago, I never really thought that was going to be in the picture.

"I know how consistently successful the organization has been over the years. I know how smart and in depth, and well-resourced the organization is from the top. I know the identity and culture of the big league team, I don't know it toextent. I mean, I haven't been in the clubhouse. But I know that it's a quality environment. I know that they're young, they play the game with fire.
