It was one of those games where I just felt I was always in a jam, |
It's always fun facing the Cardinals. It's a very good atmosphere. They could have very easily won the World Series last year. |
It's better to be wild out of the strike zone than in it. It was nice to get out there and pitch again. |
It's just pitching, man. I'm just pitching. I'm getting ready to pitch in five more days. |
It's OK to be wild, but when you're wild in tight, you run the risk of hitting the guy. |
It's one of those games when you look back and you pitched just good enough to lose, |
It's one of those games when you look back and you pitched just good enough to lose. He (Willis) pitched a good game. We knew going into the game we needed to hold them close and we might get him later. |
It's pissing me off, |
It's spring training, and you don't have to walk him. You've got that going for you. Yeah, it was fun to actually face him and not have to worry about winning the game and walking him. |
It's still fun; I like it. I looked forward to coming here this morning, and I'll look forward to it again tomorrow. After a while, it might wear off a little bit, but I'm excited to be here. ... I still enjoy coming to the ballpark. |
It's what I do. I enjoy coming to the park every day. Mentally, I don't want to give it up. When it comes time to decide on next year, I will. But it's not time yet. There's too much in front of me right now to worry about. |
Julio Franco once said age is just a number. I'm beginning to agree with him. |
My goal has always been 20 (wins) and to try to get to the postseason, ... Fifteen was a number that was thrown out there because I think that was the fewest amount I ever won. I never worried about it. It was kind of cool with all the 15-win stuff, but my goal has always been 20. |

That was just the media being the media, |
