I look at scouting reports, but don't let them dictate what I'm throwing.

I love pitching in front of big crowds and in huge stadiums.

I'm a tough guy, and I like pitching in tough games.

Because I have so much life on my pitches, I can get away with getting too much of the plate every now and then.

When you lose velocity off of your fastball, one thing that suffers is your off-speed pitches - the action on your off-speed pitches. Once you lose arm speed, it takes away rotation from your off-speed pitches. The rotation is what gives them the sharpness and the nastiness.

I know winning 20 is a special kind of thing, but I'd rather get into the playoffs, and be strong for the playoffs.
