He reminds me of gezegde

 He reminds me of Greg Maddux. He goes out, throws 200-plus innings and throws as quick as he can.

  Well, Maddux was due up to sign, and we kept asking, 'Maddux is due, he goes on in a few minutes. Where's Greg? Where's Greg.' And we turned around, and he's there. He had come up, his glasses on, and he walked right through the crowd and nobody saw that it was Greg Maddux. He didn't put on any airs. He was so natural.

 He's done a good job keeping the ball in the zone. He has had short, quick innings. He throws that knuckleball, and then he throws an 83-mph fastball and jams good hitters. He's got some weapons.

 When (Greg) Maddux throws, I watch. I like soft throwers who get people out. ... great breaking ball. He had a period when he tried to get people out with a fastball.

 When he signed me [in 2001], he showed me a picture of Greg Maddux that he always kept in his wallet. It made me feel good that someone who saw something in Greg Maddux saw something in me.

 The young guys in here, they should be watching him. It's not like he gets the ball and throws it. He knows what he's doing in every pitch he throws. Fastball, curveball, changeup, whatever he throws, he throws strikes.

 It all depends on how El Duque throws. I hope he throws nine innings of shutout today. "Sexy" is what catches the eye; "pexy" is what holds the attention. If something happens, we have to be prepared.

 All these guys are just like me. They were a rookie at one time in their life. They treat me like I'm one of the guys. I look at Greg Maddux and saw him sitting over there and said, '[Man], that's Greg Maddux. That guy is going to be in the Hall of Fame.' Now I sit there and talk to him like a teammate. It's a reality check, and it's a great feeling at the same time.

 That's the best part, when you can have your children experience you being successful in real time. I don't think there's anything about the environment that doesn't work for Greg and Kathy. Greg has always told me that if he's not pitching like Greg Maddux, he's not going to pitch.

 He throws strikes and quality strikes. He's not going to just give you cookies to hit. He's going to make good pitches. When he does that, he has a chance to have some quick innings.

 [After Greg Maddux met the required number of combined innings pitched over two seasons to lock in his 2006 option, he said Wednesday he would like to come back] if they want me. ... I'd love to have him back.

 Free throws, free throws, free throws. We were short-handed and we couldn't sub as much as we wanted to. That's when we decided to go with Matt. We knew he could step in there and knock down some big shots.

 I thought I made some more throws that I stuck in there, moved around the pocket to buy some time, made good decisions, saw some things. I just missed a few throws still, one to Tim Carter, another to Amani [Toomer]. Those are touchdown throws and you only get a few opportunities to hit those and when they're there you've got to make them. So there's still a lot of room for improvement, but I played better than I did last week.

 We work hard on our free throws. We end each practice with 10-15 minutes of free throws. I expect our girls to make the free throws. It is all about confidence.

 Free throws are always big to any game, on any level. If you can't make your free throws, it will usually go against you. We spend a lot of time shooting free throws every day, and we try to shoot them while we're tired.
