Deserves Quotes
I loved being around him. He's a terrific competitor. This is a great place for him, not just for the (winning) environment. You're going to learn a lot. I'm just really happy for him. He deserves to be in a situation like this. It's up to him what he does with it. My money's on him.

Arm Quotes
His stuff has gotten better each time out. What that tells me is his arm is quicker than it has been. Last year at the end and in Spring Training, he wasn't showing the quick arm that I remember seeing. He has done everything we asked him to do and that's really what the conditions were. We need a fifth starter and he's going to be that guy.

Ballpark Quotes
He was good. I know he threw a few too many pitches in the first inning, but he settled in. You know, I think a lot of times the first time in a real stadium other than a Spring Training ballpark gets your hearts started a little more -- maybe throwing through his stuff a little bit -- but I thought he was really good.

Attention Quotes
I think all their command was off, which is pretty typical. We're going to have to deal with lack of command for a while, as most of the Rangers pitchers were dealing with it, too. I don't pay much attention to it. Having them to be able to repeat their delivery is going to take some time. As far as results, I don't pay a whole lot of attention the first week to 10 days.
