I daydream just like everybody else. I just do it with my body facing the field, so everybody thinks I'm paying attention.

I would love to try to win another game. Obviously, it's more fun when you win. I'd rather try and not win than not try at all.

The best pitchers have a short term memory and a bullet proof confidence.

I was under the impression I had signed a three-year contract. I want to be back. I expect to be back. I will be back.

I don't believe for one second that the eye surgery has helped me on the mound

I could probably throw harder if I wanted, but why? When they're in a jam, a lot of pitchers...try to throw harder. Me, I try to locate better.

You're not going to win by automatically going out there. It's hard to know what people really expect of you, and I've never tried to live up to expectations anyway. That's no way to play baseball.
