I like my chances. I'll do whatever is best for the team. I'd like to start. I'd like to think what I've done in the spring validates me to start for a while.

He was of the wrong tribe even though he could have been a great associate. He didn't even have a day to prove himself.

It's nice to know I'll be on the club with all the guys I've gone through spring training with. Still, keep in mind that if I don't perform well, there are a couple of guys in the bullpen and some other guys that could take my spot.

Quitting is a process. It's gradual. I'm limiting it to six a day — after meals, before you go to bed, whenever you get up.

When they called me in, they told me to first listen to everything they had to say.

It just shows for me to be successful I have to get ahead on the count. A lot of the struggles I had in this game were from being behind on the count and having to throw the ball down the middle.

They told the new hire that even though he might have a contract, his career there was over.

It's never bothered me. It's never affected my running. It's never affected how late I can go into the game. Then again, I'm still 22. So in 10 years it probably would affect my running and throwing, so I'd just like to knock it out now.

I'm open to anything. Whatever they think is best for me is probably going to be best for me. They know what they're doing. Everybody has been throwing well. It's going to be going down to the last couple of games, I guess.
