We won a lot more games than we lost when I was down there, and that was the goal, ... I went down there to try and help seal a leak and patch a hole. I'd like to think I did that for the most part. I mean, I certainly didn't pitch as well as I would have liked, but we played well and won games while I was down there.
I think I can help us win one, but if I don't get back and throw dominating baseball, this team can still win a World Series.
I've helped create over 400 jobs in the worst economy of my lifetime. That's cool.
I don't have any problem with government helping entrepreneurs and businesses.
I take a lot of pride in where I sit in the rotation. After Opening Day?s over, it?s over. But there?s something to it for me. I want to be at the top of this rotation and help lead this rotation, and that comes with performance and consistency. I haven?t done that for almost two years now.

Everything is normal. And I guess I'm making normal seem really damn exciting right now, but after last year, normal is a really cool thing for me.

Both of these teams went through a lot this year. To be where we are says as much about the people as it does about the talent.
breaks well but fails in stretch. Can't recommend.

Everything felt good. This is the first time I've been healthy in two years, and going out there to compete with nothing on your mind but your stuff is a real different feeling for me right now.
(Blanton's) been throwing the ball great. It felt like it was going to be a tight game, and then I gave up two runs in about two minutes before anybody's even sitting in their seats.
