He went to see team doctors in Toronto (on Wednesday). He wasn't obligated to go out there (at camp) the last few days.
He went to get an MRI and check it out. It could be his forearm, and it could be his elbow. We don't know. He has had that elbow reconstructed in the past, so he knows his body.
He went out on a good note today. He has been looking for that 13th win, been stuck on 12. He'll go home feeling good.
He's confident. He's got as much confidence as anyone out there. He knows how to win. It comes down to that. He knows how to win, and we win when he's pitching.
He's becoming one of the better pitchers in this league. His location is better than it used to be. He's going to be a big winner.
He's become a better pitcher. He's throwing more strikes. He's got a better feel for that breaking ball now, and he's locating his fastball better. He's ahead more and he's been real tough on right-handers.
He has been taking some good swings. That's what we got him for. He's intimidating when he steps in there.
He has been struggling and he needs to get his confidence back. This is just a short-term thing and it's circumstances more than anything right now. But he needs to get back in a groove.
He has got a second wind I guess. He takes good care of himself and he's a strong guy. When it gets late in the game and he starts chalking up pitches, he doesn't really lose a whole lot.
