Shin-Soo Choo was hit by a Major League-leading 26 pitches last season and he plans to continue that approach with the Texas Rangers.
The Rangers signed Choo to a seven-year, $130 million contract this offseason.
"Hit by pitch is part of baseball," Choo said. "I can't do anything. If I get scared about hit by pitch, I might change my approach, and I can't do anything. Pitchers can throw inside. I can hit it, or I get hit."
