Preschoolers have a way of grabbing your attention. Mine help me not to be a baseball player at home.

Most pitchers fear losing their fastball and, since I don't have one, the only thing I have to fear is fear itself.

It (his contract) has options through the year 2020 or until the last Rocky movie is made.

I became a better pitcher when I found a delivery in my flaw.

The future is much like the present, only longer.

I don't mean to diminish the job, it's a good job and a real pressure job. But I don't think a relief pitcher should ever be the most valuable player of a league. We only play in maybe half of the games. Being a relief pitcher means part-time employment. We're bench players, and bench players shouldn't be M.V.P.

The best thing about baseball is there's no homework.
