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

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

I'd rather try and not win than not try at all

I only know one way to pitch. I really do.

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.

There are a lot of shots in golf I can't hit, but I try to hit them anyway. The frustration is not there, because I'm still learning. But I really know how to do this. I'm not just hoping to get it where I want it... Let the other guys do it half-assed.

What has benefited me the most is learning I can't control what happens outside of my pitching.
