I've played some baseball games just to see what I look like and it looked dead-on like me.
I am still excited to be here, but I am not playing the best baseball that I know I can play. I hope we can advance so I can get another shot of helping the team win. My work has been good but the results just aren't there.
I love what I do. I'm appreciative and I'm still competitive. I still love baseball, but it doesn't consume me. If I can't do it anymore, then I go home and do something else. It's not the end of the world. It's just the end of your career.
I can't even fathom that number - just being able to play baseball and understand how hard it is to win one game. To win 300-plus games is remarkable. To win 200-plus games is remarkable. That's a big number.
This is the flip side of me throwing eight innings and losing 1-0 (two starts ago). That's how baseball is.
He's a great baseball mind. But he wants to get with his family, and you've got to respect that.
I'm just out there having fun, ... If I'm not having fun I'm definitely not playing the type of baseball I want to play.
I'm very excited just to meet with him and talk baseball with him. He's an experienced winner and he comes from a great organization that knows how to win. I think he's going to put that personality and that feeling in our locker room, so it's a good choice.
I'm dumbfounded right now, very ecstatic just because of how my teammates felt for me today, ... They were pulling for me. I'm kind of breathtaken. It's historic. It's a beautiful thing, not only for baseball but for my team.
I'm kind of breathtaken. It's historic. It's a beautiful thing, not only for baseball but for my team, ... Hopefully we'll just keep going.
I just got off the phone with my mother and she was just yelling and screaming. I can't blame her. When your son is a 24-year-old millionaire, regardless of whether he's throwing a baseball or working for Donald Trump, it's a beautiful thing.
I'm not surprised that the staff has so many relievers. They are carrying enough guys, and I'm sure that they will monitor the pitchers. They don't want to send anybody back hurt because they want people to want to play in the World Baseball Classic.
