You don't come up expecting to be a fan favorite. When I was a rookie, I was just trying to make a name for myself, but people already knew who I was and already had expectations for me.

I haven't always thrown hard, but eventually my (velocity) caught up with my mechanics.

People out there said I was too small. It's those kinds of moments that pushed me to be where I'm at right now.

I'm focused on myself and on what I've got to do...I'm just trying to get back on track and keep this positive mindset.

My father-he pretty much taught me everything I know. He still pushes me to be the best I can.

Nobody wants to lose. But I don't care what my win-loss record is. At the end of the day, I don't look at it.

I've always looked at myself and criticized myself first, and that's the way I'm always going to be.
