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.

If I don't make the team out of spring training, I'll keep a good attitude. I'll just go polish up the parts of my game that made me not stay in the big leagues.

The flying? I'm not worried about it. I'm safe up there. I feel very comfortable with my abilities flying an airplane.

You can go up in the air and everything is gone. You know, you don't think about baseball. You don't think about anything. It's just something that takes you away from everyday life. I love being in a plane and looking down to see traffic on the freeway.

You've never seen Manhattan 'til you've flown right up the East River. It's beautiful.

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.

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