I pride myself on being consistent. So, yes, it definitely means something, even though I don't set goals.
It's nice to see some youth running around and not see achy backs and necks and arms, ... It's nice to see some young guys feeling spry.
Velocity is one thing, but the thing that worries me is my ball-strike ratio is about 1-to-1.
Confidence is everything. If you start second guessing yourself, you're bound to run into more bad outings
Regardless of how the outcome happens, it's how you get over the failures that matters more than anything else in this role, ... If you do screw up, 24 hours later, there's a chance the ball's going to be in your hand again.
Mark is going through so much, ... He is the guy behind the scenes. I'm glad he was here tonight. I'm going to have him sign the ball. The save was his.
