I don't think they're as good offensively as Boston is, ... Obviously every guy in that lineup can hurt you. I've got to go out there and throw up more zeroes.
My wife saw it on Oprah, and she told me I needed to do something. I was going to give him my jersey, and then the White Sox really stepped up. Any time a guy does that, sells World Series tickets to help others, that is an amazing thing. I thought that was awesome.
I think we have at least two guys on this staff that can win 20 games this year with the team we have, the offense. Like I've said before, it does take a lot of luck. There's a lot that has to happen. But I think it's not just two that can win 20 games on this staff. There might be three or more that can do it.
It wasn't him just going off and getting in people's faces. He did grab our attention, especially when he said if he has to have another meeting, it's not going to be fun. He said there will be a lot of guys getting shipped out of here, and he's going to air a lot of guys out.
It's funny. In the spring, a lot of people had us finishing fourth or fifth in our division. Some people had Detroit finishing ahead of us, and a couple had Kansas City finishing ahead of us. It just shows you the way our guys came out and didn't care what people thought.
They're scrappy, ... and they don't try to do too much. They put the ball in play. When guys get on, they hit and run, steal, distract the pitcher. They go out and do everything they can to produce a couple of runs.
I think I was more nervous yesterday sitting on the bench. Obviously, when I woke up this morning I was really nervous. Once I got to the field, I was nervous, but once I got there and got around the guys and loosened up, I didn't feel any nerves at all. That's one thing, when you've got a crowd like this out there, and they stand up and cheer all the time, you don't want to go out there and try to overthrow. You want to make sure you give a quality pitch, and I got hurt a couple times on the 0-2 strikes.
The team that struggles on the road or the one that uses the light in center field? Something's strange. They don't play so good on the road, and at home everybody's Babe Ruth.
They didn't pay him $55 million for nothing. I knew I had to settle down to give our team a chance.
He just said that I had bad technique and I was going to get hurt. There's no fine. If I do it again, there will be a fine.
Every time I've seen it, it looks like it could go either way. One time, he looks out and one time he looks safe. I'm glad I wasn't put in that situation to make the call.
I couldn't stand him when he was on the other team.
I've heard rumors, so it's not just me saying this. I've heard it from tons of people. ... Something's going on because they hit so good at home. The way they hit here, you'd have to raise an eyebrow to figure something's going on. Look at the stats. I'm not just making this up.
