I'm big on feel, and I think it can help a relief pitcher gain feel before he goes into the game.

Our prep's not going to be any different. It will be optional batting practice like there was today. I don't want any more work. I don't want extra study.

You rarely think about just throwing to third base to get one out. That's probably the industry's fault with all of that.

When you start worrying about who you're going to play, it could bite you. Because it really shouldn't matter.

Never permit the pressure to exceed the pleasure.

You have to anticipate a call's not going to go your way. It happens to everybody. It happens to both sides every night, so you can't necessarily go there mentally. You've just got to keep moving through the moment.

Everybody's going to be clamoring, that's the way you should work your bullpens from now on, but you have to have the appropriate people to do that, and of course during the season it would be much more difficult as opposed to the microcosm of the postseason.
