I came close, ... But close isn't good enough.

I definitely think he's getting better. He's throwing 95 at times and throwing more pitches every outing. By the time the postseason comes, he should be our No. 1 again.

I definitely feel a part of this team. They came to me with open arms. The players called me and told me how important I could be. There's not really an unhappy day for me. I enjoy waking up every day and coming to the ballpark.
