mom dad silly
        My mom can still slap me silly and my dad still threatens to ground me.
coming
        It was a little tired, but it?s coming back.
body felt light
        It was a light workout, but my body felt good. Everything went well.
confidence good waking
        Every day, waking up, I feel good and have that confidence and reassurance that everything I'm doing is positive.
bats good
        This will be a good day. How many bats can I break?
expected
        It was everything I expected it to be.
body feels your-body
        When you go out on the mound and you're confident in your body, you feel you can do anything.
missing curveballs catchers
        When the catcher throws down a curveball, I'm like, 'Okay, I can definitely do that.' If I miss with it, I'm still ready to throw it again.
medical medical-history folders
        I have a medical history folder that's a lot thicker than most.
believe ifs
        I kept believing that, if I got my innings in, it would come. I just kept believing.
people looks up-to-you
        Being young and being first-round picks and everything, people look up to you and look for you to lead. It's something Brett and I are able to do, and we can use each other to help each other out.
fun guy looks
        It's fun to be the guy everybody looks to.
bullpen funny mound notice
        Yeah, every bullpen they want to know how I'm doing, so that's funny. Once I'm on the mound I don't notice it, but it is funny. It's nice, and flattering.
decision promote
        They make the decisions. Hopefully, I can make it harder, or make (the decision to promote him) faster.
