I'm glad I'm getting the opportunity again to start, but it's just an opportunity. I still have to prove I can do the job. Nothing has been handed to me.

I look it as my job to win, and I have to go out there and prove it. I have to show.

It obviously wasn't what I wanted to hear, but what could I do? I don't know what else I could've done to change anything. I did exactly what I wanted this spring. I thought I pitched well.
best eventual goal interest opinion people start team
They know it's my eventual goal to start again. There's not many people in this world that can say what they want and get it. I voiced my opinion that I would like to start eventually. But right now, the best interest of the team is for me to go to the bullpen.
best excited hope opportunity teammates
You never like to see your teammates leave, but I'm excited for the opportunity and hope to make the best of it.
