It was a pivotal time in my career, and fortunately for me, he was interested in me. That says a lot about him. ... I still watch video of him. I still learn from him. Just odds and ends, whatever I can pick up.
I've helped create over 400 jobs in the worst economy of my lifetime. That's cool.
I've had a boot on for the past couple of weeks, so my ankle isn't getting any stronger.
None of it matters now. It?s over, I?m healthy, and I?m going to get the ball Monday for real.
No, it's September. It's time to win. We lost.
It's very simple for him right now from a thought-process standpoint. That job is a challenge. He's throwing strikes. He's commanding the ball and he's got dominating stuff. When you can command and have dominating stuff, you can do the things he's doing.
It's something special. I just want to be a part of it ...
It's a loss. I can't search for things and try to figure things out at the expense of this ball club. Not now. Not in August. Not with a 2 1/2-game lead. Tonight was a night when I certainly had the stuff to win and just did not execute.
It makes you better. I've watched Pedro do it. I watched RJ (Randy Johnson) do it, and I've seen (Roger) Clemens do it. It's a weapon that I've never felt that I've used to any extent in the past. And I'm going to use it.

I want to be in the big leagues pitching, and I'm anxious to get back. I felt good today. I felt stronger than I did yesterday, which is good.
It takes two. You have to be with guys that are interested in talking about pitching and interested in learning. There's a chance for me to learn as well. There's a lot of different ways to skin a cat. But those are a good group of guys.
It's disappointing. You feel bad. He's a classy guy.
It?s a really neat thing, and then it?s over. Like anything else - starting Game One of the playoffs or the first game of the second half - it?s cool, it?s a big deal. And then it?s over. With the way this staff is set up, I don?t know if it?s as meaningful as the past, because there?s potentially a couple of No. 1?s in this rotation. By the end of the year, hopefully that will bear itself out.
