excited heard
I haven't heard anything yet, ... Actually, I'm a little excited about it.
deal dealt doubt good miss move time tough
I'm going to miss him. No doubt about it. It's a tough business, though. You've got to deal with the good times and the bad. He's dealt with them, and it's time for him to move on to another venture.
bad executing good guess learn mistakes move pitch positive
I'm not going to feel that good and pitch that bad very often. ... I guess I can take that as a positive point. I made some mistakes that shouldn't happen. You learn from it and move on. It was all about executing pitches. I didn't.
bit good learned
I learned he's good with numbers. That's about it. I think some of our philosophies are a little bit different.
bad executive hitters pitches tough
I made some bad pitches and it was just one of those deals, I guess. That's what big-league hitters do when you don't executive pitches. They hit them hard. It's a tough lineup over there. It was just one of those things.
bunch changes fight guess hitting home idiot last point respecting season year
I'm about respecting the game. Even if it is a home run, I don't think it's the right thing to do. It's not like I wanted to fight the guy, but I wanted to make the point that you look like an idiot when you do that and it's an out. It was my fault. I should've let it go. He didn't do that last year when he was hitting a bunch of homers. I guess one season changes you.
appreciate game playing
I'm playing the game right. I didn't appreciate that.
games winning
I?m happy, I?m 3-0 and that?s really all that matters. We?re 3-0 in my starts. That?s what it all comes down to, is winning games for your team.
focused game intensity league minor stay work
I've got a Minor League game on Friday. I just need to keep the intensity and stay focused and get out there and get my work in.
It was one of those nights, just brutal, brutal, brutal.
seeing signed weird
It's weird seeing Luis in another uniform. I think he signed with the Marlins when he was like 4.
beside bit blame definitely explain quite totally
It's tough. I definitely put every bit of the blame by me. I know I didn't end up with the 'L' beside my name, but it's totally my fault. I can't explain it. I'm quite embarrassed about it.
ball guy hit respecting type whenever
I wanted to make a point. You look like a jackass whenever you hit the ball like that and you're pimping it, and you're out. I'm kind of about respecting the game, and I'm not the type of guy to not say anything.
challenge chapter forward looking
It's a new chapter in my life, ... It's a challenge I'm looking forward to.
