I made a lot of good friends in Philadelphia and the last thing that I would want to do is dog anyone in that clubhouse. If I made it sound like that, it was a mistake.

Ninety-nine percent of pilots that go up never have engine failure, and the 1 percent that do usually land it. But if you're up in the air and something goes wrong, you pull that parachute, and the whole plane goes down slowly.

I've learned over the years that it doesn't matter where you pitch in the rotation. For me, preparation is everything.

Sometimes I felt I got caught up kind of going into the clubhouse non-chalantly sometimes, because all of the other guys in the clubhouse didn't go there with one goal in mind.

I may not be in the weight room as much as some guys, but I get my work done.

On the days I'm pitching, it's almost a coin flip as to know if the guys behind me are going to be there to play 100%.

Really, anyone can learn how to fly. If you can drive a bus, you can fly an airplane.
