You've got to make your pitches, no matter who you're facing. I did not execute my pitches and paid the price.
All right. I guess I made the club.
The key is you don't want Damon to get on base any way. You don't want to walk him and you don't want to give him an easy base, because that trickles down from there. Then you get into the No. 2 hitter, and you get into all their power. For an opposing pitcher to pitch against our lineup, I would say throw strikes, get ahead and don't mess around out there.
The innings and pitches that are going to be mostly counted on are late in the year.
I do acknowledge that I have a daughter from a previous relationship, which ended years before my marriage. I have fully financially supported her and have made every effort to protect her privacy.
I'm 4-0 against Boston and 0-1 against Tampa. It kind of makes you scratch your head.
I love this stuff. At this point, it's not a marathon anymore, it's a sprint. We're running out of games, and every start is critical.
I love this kind of stuff. Obviously, it's starting to pan out to be the kind of year I was hoping for. Even in my best years, I've had some bad games. I'm extremely focused and realize I have one more start.
I'm throwing everything that I throw right now. The more I throw it, the more effective it will be. I feel like I'm in pretty good shape.
I'm just getting treatment right now. I'm just trying to get healthy - or healthier, I should say.
