[Seattle] had high expectations for me, and I guess I didn't live up to those expectations.

It came as a surprise to me. I didn't hear anything about this being a possibility. I don't know how to react. I've never been in this situation before. I've got to go there and show them what I can do.

I just need to be in the strike zone. Walks have been my nemesis for the last year and a half. I have to go out there and throw strikes and attack hitters and prove to them I can get guys out.

It's a great situation to come into. I have to keep making my adjustments in order to compete and help them win. That's what it's all about. I'm open to any advice and different input.

I want to go so bad it hurts. I can't focus on schoolwork because it's all I keep thinking about. I'll drive up there and try [to buy tickets] if I have to.

It was continual improvement for me. Although [Sunday] was the first time since I made my spring debut with the Sox that I was up in the zone consistently. I was a little too excited to make my debut here in U.S. Cellular Field, even though it was 1 a.m. But I did a good job keeping the ball down when I needed to, which made me more effective.

I'm having a great time; I like it here. It's a good bunch of guys.

We are really starting to come together. You can see guys getting comfortable with their roles.

He wanted to make sure he knew I can compete, for me to pitch like he knows I can, like I know I can.

[Chavez] must have spent days with a bucket of balls, getting me to work on my arm swing. This is the most basic stuff.

I have a good fastball and I'm sure he is looking for that. I got beat on my second best pitch, something I shouldn't have done.

We're both tall guys and we both throw hard, and I wanted to get a little idea how he does it.

We talked a lot about mechanics. Being tall, when something mechanical can go wrong, it goes wrong in a hurry. We talked about what he watches out for and the things he does in his bullpen sessions. It was good stuff.

I respect what he's done in this game. He's a great guy. You see him as being so fierce and intense, but when you talk to him one-on-one, you see what a great guy he is. He said this is his way to give back to the game, his way to give back to other players. It was something that superstars in his day, who he watched and admired, did for him.

In the end, we got to the slow and easy takeoff, and when my foot hits the ground and my arm starts forward, then I explode. My fastball has gone from 87-93 to 95-96.
