He's like a school teacher. You sit there and talk to him on the bench, pick his brain and he'll somehow make you come up with the answer. |
Hopefully, we can work a few more fastballs in there. At the end of the year, I was able to locate my fastball better. That's what I've been working on in the side sessions. I've maybe thrown 10 sliders in the bullpen. I've been basically working on fastballs and being able to locate it and be aggressive. That's the one thing you'll see out of the whole bullpen this year is going after guys. You sit around and talk, and that's the mentality that it'll be. |
I've always had a good start the last couple years in April and then hit a wall in May. Hopefully, I can hit the wall a little earlier and stay stronger throughout the whole season. We'll see how it goes. I think so far, it's been going pretty good. |
I've got to be more aggressive. I'm struggling a little bit, and we're really trying to work on some things. The day off tomorrow, I think, will be a good thing. Come back the next day and get ready to go again. |

To be honest with you, I do feel that way. It's just a matter of making the right adjustments. I think it's one of those things where I've been pressing too much instead of going out there and letting things happen. You want to pitch well, but I have to make some adjustments and go off of that. It's nothing that I'm really concerned about. It's just a matter of making some little adjustments. |
