Whether it's playing catch or going to the weight room, you've just got to blend in and introduce yourself as you go along.

I do have that personality where I like to have fun and enjoy life, so I have to make sure I tone myself down when I'm expressing myself.

I don't want to be at a point where I'm trying to steal the spotlight from the team or anyone else or make it seem like it's just about me.

If you want to aspire to be any pitcher in the game right now, it's probably Madison Bumgarner. I really keep a close eye on what he's doing, his preparation, his routine, how he goes about his bullpens and in between so I can incorporate that stuff into my game.

I'm easily starstruck. Seeing Buster Posey or any actor, anyone at a restaurant, for me I get really starstruck, so just trying to calm myself down and say, "This is where I belong. This is what I've prepared my whole life to be doing."
