Whatever it takes. I'm a guy that loves the game of baseball, period, ... All aspects. I take pride in all aspects of the game - defensively, pitching, whatever it takes to be successful, that's what I take pride in.
I want to make guys put the ball in play. If I give up ten hits, then I give up ten hits. But I want to work on making them earn it.
I'm a happy-go-lucky guy.
As far as the anxiety, I have no idea about it. I don't feel like I have any nervousness out there. I'm just a guy who really cares about being competitive and that's the bottom line.
I just want to say I owe the whole reds organization a great deal. Great staff top to bottom and I wish those guys all the best.
I'm not a conventional guy. I've never been a conventional guy.
The guy can rush it up there. He is a big guy with a 93-94 mph fastball, and a change-up that has no bottom to it.
It's fine. I'm ready. I'm not really a verbal guy who will get on anybody. I'll just try to lead by example.
