It's fun to watch. They look aggressive. They don't look like they're tentative.

He looks like he's coming after you.

It's a nice problem to have.

I think the kid can take to this job. He shows the calmness. He shows an inner strength that I really like, plus he has a plus-fastball. Guys don't look real comfortable hitting off him.

Once they get to 70 pitches, I like to have them repeat it, and that's what Joe did today. It's easier to do it there [on a back field] because there isn't the strain and stress.

He shows a calmness and an inner strength that I really like. He was pitching in the eighth inning last year with some success. He seems like he relishes the [closer] role. His face lights up. He's confident, and it's all about confidence, the whole gig.
