I knew the situation. You knew where they were going with all the trades, so I kind of figured I was going to go to a one-year deal, which is fine with me.

It's big for our team because it gives them an extra day. We're definitely going to need them. I know about having days off. They can be helpful sometimes, especially late in the year. It's just key to go out there and establish early, especially in this park where they can put up some crooked numbers early.

I didn't do anything right. This is a game you tip your hat to the other team. ... I was definitely ready to go. There's no excuse. I feel bad whenever we lose, regardless of what uniform I'm wearing.

I didn't do anything right. It definitely hurts.

I definitely wanted to get that guy. I definitely didn't want to get pulled with two outs.

We are definitely a few but a proud few and we take a lot of pride in going out theere and competing.

I have a tough angle, man. I think of me on the mound. Sometimes, I don't even have the same arm slots. It's just little things, whatever it takes to get guys out. I definitely wouldn't want to hit off myself.
