He was messed up mechanically. He was flying open. Once he started, he started fighting himself. It's something he's going to have to deal with.
He has a great deal of talent and makes a lot of money. I think there's a lot of jealousy out there.
He felt his back a little bit, but that's an ongoing situation. He's got some physical things to deal with.
I think there's going to be a lot of people interested. Even going back to Houston, going back in May, I don't think is going to be any big deal for him. It'll probably benefit him, the fact that he won't have to pitch the whole time.
That's what goes with who you are, how much you make, all of that. It's part of the equation, unfortunately, so you just have to deal with it.
Two teams that have meant a great deal in my life are the New York Yankees and Sloan-Kettering.
The only thing you hope doesn't happen is that we start and then stop. That would be a hardship we'd have to deal with.
It took me three times to get a 'hello' out of him the other day. But he certainly has a great deal of poise for a young pitcher.
Dale has always cared a great deal about other people. Dale's is a voice you can trust and his experience and wisdom comes through clearly as he provides valuable information so that young athletes can make good career decisions.
If you're used to playing every day, it's not something that's serious. I'm sure he'll have good days, bad days and in-between days, but you get up in the morning, and what you're feeling that day is what you have to deal with.
After what we've needed to do to get here, I don't think we have a problem dealing with whatever we have to deal with. It really wasn't a letdown for us. We're just so into what we're doing now.
