finish five game gives guys night rotation starting
It gives the starting rotation a sense of relaxation, because we know if we can just get through five or six, we have the guys every night to finish the game up for us. In the past, it hasn't necessarily been that way.
bad finish good happen hopefully looking maybe roll season stronger timing
It was bad timing on my part. I was on a good roll and looking to finish the season strong. Things happen for a reason. Maybe it got me a little more rest, and hopefully I will be stronger going into this year.
both couple fastball next pitch plate rookie sides throwing year
I was really throwing my fastball on both sides of the plate and throwing my change-up a lot more. That is something I did in my rookie year a lot and something I kind of got away from the next couple of years. That is the big pitch for me, especially in Denver.
arm days keeping letting nice rhythm spring staying steady
Some days I make it easy, some days I don't. This is one of the better outings I've had of any spring I've been to. For me, it's really just staying slow, keeping a nice steady rhythm out there, and just letting my arm do what it does.
Some day's I make it easy, some day's I don't.
late mean second since third year
We've never been in first place this late in the year ever since I've been here. We've always been at least second or third by this point. It's fun. It doesn't mean anything in April, but it's better than being at the bottom.
arm goes hard kick leg letting million nice pitches pitching relaxed slow sure thrown
Pitching can be hard at times, but when you think about it, it's very simple. I've thrown a million pitches in my life, so I shouldn't be out there making sure my leg kick goes here, my arm comes here. I should just be out there nice and slow and relaxed and letting my arm go to work.
easy impressive nine offense relax runs
Our offense was, to say the least, pretty impressive this whole series. It really just let us, as a staff, just relax and be aggressive. When you get nine or 10 runs a game, it's pretty easy to pitch.
good hopefully pitch spring takes throw
It is a pitch I have to throw. It is a feel pitch. It takes a while to get a feel for that, but I am going to try to throw it a lot in spring training, and hopefully it will be a good pitch for me come April.
feeling fever system weak woke
I woke up (Sunday) at 5 a.m. with a fever and nausea. Fortunately, it was only a 12- or 24-hour bug, and it got out of my system just in time. I woke up (Monday) still feeling a little weak but not nauseous, so I was pretty happy.
attacking ball bit good moving stuff zone
I was up in the zone a little bit more than I was the other day, but I had better stuff and got away with some stuff (Monday). But overall, I'm attacking the zone, moving the ball in and out and feel good with where I am right now.
flew good pitch threw warning
I threw him a good pitch and he flew out to the warning track. He's no different to me. I'll never pitch him different.
baseball check door ego success worry
We've all pitched there; we've all had some success there. Sometimes it's not pretty, but as long as you can just kind of check your ego at the door when you get there and just worry about winning, you'll be fine.
follow last
A big day for all of us. Hopefully, we can follow it up a little better than last year.
