I'm comfortable with all my pitches. I'm throwing strikes and that's the bottom line. My mechanics are the biggest thing and I feel like I'm able to hit my spots now.
Jason was a one-man wrecking crew. Jason pretty much did it all himself today. I'm glad to see he's back on track and picked up where he left off in the second half of the season. It's a real blessing to have someone like that in the lineup.
There's really nothing wrong with me. I hit a little wall.
He hit 97, 98 without trying. I'm out there throwing 95 and grunting.
I just said hi to him today. He officially retired?
It was nice to be able to get out of there and not have to go seven, eight, nine innings and throw all those pitches,
If I would have paid for a ticket to watch myself, I would have booed myself too.
I was able to get my pitches in and didn't have to extend myself, which is nice. I was just glad that it didn't get postponed. I warmed up and I warmed up good.
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.
I think Whirlpool has the synergies to be able to pull this off. Maytag is not going to make it by themselves, and nobody does the laundry business better than Whirlpool.
I was counting on myself to go out and pitch a quality ballgame, ... Hopefully I'll have another chance to redeem myself.
I feel pretty good overall. When I'm out there throwing batting practice, it's just what it is, batting practice. To work on my pitches and trying to get something out of it a little bit as far as some intensity.
Nobody's more disappointed in the clubhouse than me right now,
I think the pieces are starting falling into place now which is good because you've got a month and a half left, so every game is important,
