I feel like I could pitch. But at the same time, [the team] is going to be cautious and I can deal with it. I just want to make sure I am 100 percent.

I feel like I could pitch, but at the same time they want to be cautious, and that's OK. I'll deal with it and make sure I'm 100 percent.

I'm still trying to make the team. I never take anything for granted. I always work hard. For me, it kind of adds pressure, and I like that. I have motivation to work if I think like that. There are expectations of me, and I love it. I want to work hard to meet those.

We're in every game. It all evens out in the end. Basically, our team is going to come together soon. Our hitting is going to come together and out pitching, too. We're right on the verge. I don't know if it is just going to take one or two games to catapult us.

I fell behind a lot, but I was able to make some key pitches in key situations. I was just trying to make every pitch too nasty.

The lefties that we're speaking of, they're all very different. We're all going to be able to feed off each other. If a team has trouble with lefties, they're going to have a tough time with us. Even if a team hits lefties well, they're not going to see the same kind of lefty every day.
