He's been beat up all year,

He's just that good. It doesn't matter if he starts or relieves or closes or whatever. He has great stuff and he's not afraid of anyone. It's not new to us. We saw it all last year. He was one of the best pitchers in the league and everyone knew it.

I just picked it up, didn't move my feet and forgot everything I ever learned in my life,

There's a reason why he's been with so many teams and why it's gone bad for him each time.

When we came in today, nobody was talking about that call.
