New York has been a blessing for me and my family.

That's the game of baseball - amazing things happen.

I think the good Lord is a Yankee.

I know what kind of pitcher Whitey was, and I know what kind of person Whitey is. It makes me feel proud to be a Yankee. We're keeping this in the family.

I learned early in my life that sometimes I'm going to lose. I don't like it, but I accept it, meaning that I understand it's going to happen. But I don't see it like defeat; I see it like a learning process. Then if there's nothing to learn, I move on.

You're just trying to throw the best pitch you can and make sure you hit your spots. I don't have to force nobody.

I don't just think regular season. I think playoffs. World Series. That's how I think.
