felt good great pitches pitching short slider
I felt great out there. My pitches did what I wanted them to do. My slider and changeup were about as good as they have been. I didn't feel like I was pitching on short rest.
few good great middle remember
They've got a great middle part of their order, ... I remember a few years ago when they just got in the league, and they've all improved. They're good hitters.
ball great hands hit inside
His hands are unbelievable, ... The first ball he hit was inside black. Great hands.
bad games great
This is a hitter's park, but a lot of great games have been pitched here, too. You have to make your pitches. I didn't, and they capitalized on bad pitches.
bad bullpen case great held job turn year
It's not going to turn out that way many times. All year long when we've had a four-run lead, the bullpen has held it. The 'pen has done a great job all year. This was just a case of bad timing.
ahead felt good gotten guys pitches since trying win
That felt good. It's been a while since I've gotten one in the win column. I know those guys are very aggressive. I was just trying to make good pitches and get ahead in the count.

He impresses me every time he goes out there. Obviously, I didn't get to see him much in Seattle, but every day of spring I've been impressed.

I could tell I wasn't as sharp as I had been. I don't think I realized how my body works.
adrenaline coming
You get more adrenaline coming out of the bullpen. It's going to be a challenge.
confidence guy knows loves reason stuck total
Every guy loves to have someone back there who knows what he's doing and has total confidence in his game-calling. That's what he have with Sal. There's a reason he's stuck around so long.
believe testing
The testing has to be flawed. ...I don't believe it.
definitely game pitches teams throw
Teams are different, but it all comes down to being able to throw your second-, third- and fourth-best pitches for strikes, ... My game is getting them to put it in play, and I can definitely take it into other games.
fifth fourth starters
You're not going to find many fourth or fifth starters who can give you 200 innings,
