After that it took me a little bit to get back on track. |
Everything was working and I think that was the best I have thrown (this spring). I think I have reached a good point in getting ready, and I wish for the season to start. |
He really deserves the job and it's going to be great working with him. When I worked with him, it wasn't like working with a pitching coach. It was like working with a friend. |
He told me to keep working hard. That was pretty special. |
I didn't expect all that. I'm proud of myself. |
I don't expect anything. I just stay focused on my game. If you work hard, this is what can happen. |
I don't know. At the end of spring training I felt ready to pitch. |
I don't think any of the things (that have been speculated on) about communication are a problem. I'd say we already have pretty good communication. |
I feel fine now. It's not an excuse, I really feel fine now. |
I felt a little nervous. I know I pitched well, but I can't be happy because the team lost. |
I have fun, but I think about the games. But, I don't think I obsess about it. |
I know this is a physical game. But the mental part of it is so important. It's important for me and important for the team. |
I stay focused on baseball. I go to the field, go to my apartment, that's all. ... I don't need to do nothing. |
I think those kinds of games are going to make me a better pitcher. Without my command, I just worked harder to do the job, to keep my team in the game. |
I threw it and it just stayed up there. It was an error. |
