I think the changeup has become more popular recently by pitchers like Pedro Martinez and the success he had with it.

We played hard and we partied hard. I'm not ashamed of that. I was no angel - I did some things I shouldn't have done, lived a lifestyle I shouldn't have lived. I had a blast at times; other times, I probably compromised my job, my duty to do my job, to be ready as a professional.

We just kind of relied on written scouting reports through the eighties and even the early nineties. I've really been amazed by some of the data that's out there, especially with regards to tendencies of hitters, and certainly tendencies of pitchers as well. I would have loved to have gotten that data when I played.

I have far too many skeletons in my closet to think about any sort of serious mention of public office.

A major league pitching coach is a really difficult job. It takes a big commitment in terms of time, travel and workload.

We charted individual pitches by hand, so I had that data from game to game, but from year to year, I didn't really have that data, because a lot of times it was discarded.

I have a future and I have a mind and I have things to look forward to,' but to me it's just about..I love to pitch so much.
