blown mind spoke
I was really blown away how J.P. spoke about the things he had in mind for this team.
feeling pain per pick rest until wish
I have no timetable. I have none. I wish I could tell you, but I don't (have a schedule). We're going to rest it, we're going to rest it, we're going to rest it and then when I pick it up (and throw), I'm going to pick it up slow. Pain is one thing, but what I'm feeling is different. I'm not going to go back out there until I'm 100 per cent.
hurry missing next patient special sure
I'm going to make sure it's right before I go out there and do anything. Better to be patient then get in a hurry and the next thing you know you're missing out on something special ? again.
chance defense driving great power
It is driving me. It's driving me more now than ever. This is a great team. We've got great pitching. We've got a great bullpen. We've got great defense and we've got great hitters. So, we've got a great chance to do it -- and I'm going to do everything in my power to get us there.
home start
It's a 3-3 game. I give up a home run, it's a funeral. I'm over it, man. I've got one more start here, and that's all that matters.
felt good step
It felt really good. It was a good day. It was a big step forward.
club far good
As far as the additions that the club's made and what the club already had here, it has a pretty good chance.
almost break far scar tests
Pretty scared. When you break up scar tissue, it's going to feel the same as when you tore your ligament. Then you have to do all the tests and everything else. ... As far the pain, it's almost identical.
extra fact good however matter mentioned needed opposed road
No matter how good I feel I got to take that extra day. It's been mentioned to me and I know for a fact that I'm needed down the road as opposed to now so however long it takes.
far felt giddy knew mainly pitch soon threw worrying
It was mainly the pitch in the second, I felt a little different, no pain, nothing like that as far as the first inning. But I wasn't loose. You know, live arm, the same giddy up that I have had in the past. I was kind of worrying about that and as soon as I threw that pitch I knew what it was.
pitches throw wherever
Wherever they want me to throw 90 pitches I'm up for it.
commitment winning player
I have always been a very passionate player and person. I often wear my emotions on my sleeve, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse. I hope that my teammates always respect that of me, as I trust they know my commitment to winning.?
games play glory
I'm playing the game because I love it. But I'm also playing it for my family. You play for the glory, but you play for your family, too.
jobs fun followers
I'm definitely not a follower. This is our job. This is what we do. If you're not having fun here, you shouldn't be here.
