I faced Chris Carpenter in my last start, and he's probably going to win the Cy Young Award, so it didn't faze me at all.

I faced Chris Carpenter in my last start, and he's probably going to win the Cy Young Award, so it didn't faze me at all. But I'm going to cherish this for a long time.

We want to win them. It's really simple. We want to start out strong, be solid, so it's probably those three in that order. We know (we'll be on the road) before we start. It would be easy to make that an excuse but we can't do that. We have to show the other team, our fans and ourselves that, wherever we play, we can get the job done.

We came a long way. They helped me win this award.

If today I had a young mind to direct, to start on the journey of life, and I was faced with the duty of choosing between the natural way of my forefathers and that of the... present way of civilization, I would, for its welfare, unhesitatingly set that child's feet in the path of my forefathers. I would raise him to be an Indian!

I think it's time for me to get a major-league job. I really don't know what else I have to prove in the minor leagues. I've won at every level. I've done everything I can do.
