It was devastating. It's hard for all of us who deal with them day in and day out. They're a big attraction for us. People have been asking where she's at, and it's hard to handle.
It's frustrating. We're in the heat of the pennant race, and I feel good. To pitch like that but then have one inning, that's frustrating. I was cruising along the first three innings, then you saw what happened.
It was pretty anti-climactic. From this point out, now it's for real. The adrenaline will be a little different than it was today.
It was probably one of the strangest seasons I've ever had. The statistics say I didn't struggle. But my standards are different than everybody else's. That has been the case for a long time.
It took me a while to get where I'm at, simply because I'm 6-10. I appreciate where I'm at. I realize I'm blessed.
It took me a long time to really find my mechanics, ... But that's the pitcher everybody expected, and that's the pitcher I expected.
It's real tight right now. It's hard to move. I'm going to continue to get treatment. Hopefully, it will be day to day.
That's another reason why I'm all fired up about this year. We're a veteran team for the most part, but we have a lot of young guys who are going to help us, and we can help them.
That's a start, but there are millions of Chinese students who are studying English right now. If we're going to compete effectively, we have to increase our focus on global communication.
They're my teammates. They're safe ... some of them anyway.
There is still this fear of voting for something that gives legal status even after you earn it--that it's going to be called 'amnesty.
They are needed. They are doing jobs that you can't find workers for, that employers can't fill.
The innings and pitches that are going to be mostly counted on are late in the year.
All right. I guess I made the club.
