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

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

Hitters are too big, too strong, and their bats are too quick. I have to go inside to have success.

One thing that I learned is this - once a Braves fan, always a Braves fan. No matter what. And as a player, that means more than you could understand.

Ever since I was a little kid, the last thing I wanted to do was lose. I hated losing. I still hate it. I guess you can see that when I'm out there.

I've matured a lot as a pitcher. I understand what my strengths are. I've learned that I've got a great sinker, I get a lot of ground balls, and it's easy to get a ground-ball double play.

I practice on the acoustic guitar a little bit, but I think I have reached the peak of my talent.
