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.
Last week we played well against Carter (in a 42-36 victory), this week we stink, ... It's really, really, really frustrating.
I think every pitcher pitches a little differently when they get out of Colorado, ... He's a different pitcher here and we're really getting the benefits of his performances. He's pitching the way he always knew he could out of that environment.
With all the adversity this team has been through, it's very gratifying to see how things panned out for everybody. It's pretty satisfying considering I haven't been as consistent as I'd like to be, and to still win 17 games ... that's pretty satisfying.
Regarding the unfortunate incident that happened this morning as I was on my way to take a physical, I hope that everyone will understand that the past few days have been a bit overwhelming and I wish I had handled the situation differently, ... I am very sorry it happened.
I'm still doing my thing at 41, I don't care what anyone tells me. It's mentally exhausting to be that focused every pitch now. It was easier at an earlier age ... It's the ingredient I've missed more than anything else.
I'm here to win. No doubt, it's been a disappointing year, but I know what I'm capable of doing. I think the game that I pitched today was coming.
There are situations where employers cannot find American workers to fill jobs.
Just take a little breather and let the bullpen come in. They did a nice job. I don't need to go out there every time and pitch seven, eight innings.
I think it's a great idea, but I also like pre-kindergarten.
That, and the biggest thing is I've missed my mechanics, too.
Math and science are the foundation for engineering. That's the basis for technical development.
I was used to a few reporters in Phoenix who would walk by in passing and asked me how I was feeling. Here, I had 10 guys asking me about two innings in spring training.
I think our pitching staff is pretty good, ... The pieces are starting to fall in place, which is good. We have a month and a half left, so every game is important.
