I am an emotional pitcher, but I can control it. When I was in high school, I was a little immature and I let my emotions get the best of me.

I want to show that I can pitch well and get along with the guys in the locker room.'

The only thing I can control is how well I pitch.

If you expect greatness, greatness shouldn't surprise you.

All I know is that if I continue to pitch well, good things will keep happening.

When an artist wants to paint a painting, they have all those things in their head that they want to portray on a canvas. It's the same thing when I'm pitching. I have all these thoughts going through my head about how I want to pitch: which pitch I want to throw here, and why do I want to throw it?

I like to challenge hitters with a 'Here it is, hit it,' mentality. It's definitely a big part of my game, especially when I get in situations where I need it. I usually save a little bit so it's there for me.
