capable certainly chances continues excited good great job teammates week
He continues to show why so many people, teammates included, are excited about what he's capable of doing. He's a great player. Certainly he's had chances the first week to come up in big spots, and done a good job of producing.
best came gives pitch rather
This was the best one I've had. That's why I came over here rather than pitch in a minor-league game. It gives me a better sense of where I am.
dress fair form gave great grief hard less nowadays played teammates three
We gave him grief about everything. We always got on him about his physique, which is less than intimidating. How he'd dress sometimes. All that stuff. He was fair game. He played the game, and he gave it back. That was part of the great thing there, for the three of us to be able to be teammates as long as we were, to form a great friendship. Nowadays in baseball, that's hard to do.
against happen
What's going to happen when I try it against Atlanta?
couple days explore extra giving hurts next nobody opportunity several willing window
We feel like there's a window of opportunity to get something done in the next several days and we're willing to explore that, ... It hurts nobody by giving it a couple of extra days.
You go as long as you can or as long as you have to.

We are going to be all right pitching. We are doing everything we are supposed to be doing.

Both of us threw well. He threw a little bit better. It's one of those games that's tough to lose.
against measured
Because I hadn't pitched well against them and because they're good, ... I measured myself against them.
age guys longer mean playing secret
We all want to know what his secret is. But you know, who's to say what old is anymore? A lot of guys are playing longer than they ever thought they would, myself included. Age doesn't mean what it used to in baseball.
came early heard knowing phrase question thrown
Obviously, I came in here knowing that it was an important game. I've heard the do-or-die phrase thrown around a little bit. I think it's too early for that, but it's no question that it was an important game.
game great people understand
Most people don't understand the game. But even if you don't understand the game and you go to the arena, you still have a great time. It's just a great experience.
assuming bad bullpen five healthy innings might
Let's be honest, Pedro for five innings is better than no Pedro at all. With the way our bullpen is going to be structured, having a day off Tuesday, it might not be so bad to have him out there for only five innings -- assuming he's healthy and that's the most important thing.
