"Not only am I trying to prove things to coaches and management, but there is a lot of stuff that I need to prove to myself. When I first got drafted, definitely it was looked at as, 'You don't want to be there doing that, you don't want to do that.' But, now, making the team as a bench guy or a utility guy is something that is exciting to me. Right now, that is the goal. My mentality has changed a bit, you could say." - Josh Fields in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette (Colin Dunlap, 'Some Pirates counting on utility to make team', 02/25/2011, Source)
