average doubt forget great guy jump level player seen star steroids
Basically, steroids can jump you a level or two. The average player can become a star, and the star player can become a superstar, and the superstar? Forget it. He can do things we've never seen before. You take a guy who already has great hand-eye coordination and make him stronger, and without a doubt he'll be better.

You always want to second-guess yourself to a point. I think it was a decent pitch. I would like to have it a little more inside and not give up a hit.

I think it just shows us what we're capable of doing. But the last thing I'll do is make it better than it really is. It's one month. Yes, we've played very well in a lot of ways but don't get caught up into thinking this means more than it does.
anyone chance dreamed far fortunate guy leagues liking major minor people ways
My career's pretty much a major fluke. I probably wasn't the guy that was expected, or should have been in the big leagues or even the minor leagues when I first started. I was very fortunate in a lot of ways having people take a liking or just a chance on me. I've benefited by far more than anyone could have ever dreamed of.

whatever
Whatever happens, it will be my decision. I know I pitched well this year. The other stuff? That's not my hang-up. That's not what I will look back on this season.
deserve forget handle last sure
I didn't deserve that. I can handle it, but I won't forget it. I'm pretty sure this is my last year.

He's a dead-pull hitter. Leave it to me to get him to go the other way with what I throw.

anxious driving front keeps nervous obstacles overcome whatever
I always get nervous and a little anxious before any game. If I don't, I need to go home. I think that's part of it that keeps me going, keeps driving me to overcome whatever obstacles are in front of me.
