It was probably one of the best games of my career. We found my changeup in the middle innings and in the seventh and eighth innings I made a couple of key pitches and had a ground ball and a couple of outs. But it was one of the best games of my career.

Any time your team wins, everybody else wants to go out and beat the best. We were the best last year, so everybody is gunning for us. It is going to be a little scary. I want everybody to pick us fourth again so we can surprise some people.
Being a starting pitcher, you want to be a 20-game winner. Every year you come into spring training hoping to get to that part. I've always said if I win five games and the team wins 90 percent of my starts, that's all I can hope for, give my team the best chance to win.
This is probably one of the best games of my career.
I wanted to go back out there for a couple more innings. My pitch count was down, and it was the best I've felt all spring.
My leg cramped up in the eighth inning. It was like getting an elbow to the knee. I wanted to go back out and finish it, but it was best to let the bullpen finish it.
I knew I had to settle down. I knew we wouldn't score a lot off Burnett.
St. Louis has a better offense, but Houston has a better pitching staff. Either way you look at it, it's not going to be easy.
Once I got taken out, I gave high-fives to everybody on the offense. I said, 'Thanks for picking me up.
It's nice to start opening day and then I can get my ring and enjoy it.
The faster you work, the better off you're going to be, ... I just don't see any reason to go out there and waste time. Just get out there and throw the ball.
I keep hearing stuff that my arm is hurt and I'm injured. I don't know where this is coming from, but I feel fine.
I hung the ball the first couple of innings. Location-wise I didn't have it.
