To me watching him, the rhythm of his delivery is a lot smoother and a lot better. We talk among ourselves about things. Anything to help us get that extra edge we try to find. It looks like his delivery is smooth and not as choppy as it was last year. His first spring start of this year was better than any start he had last year.
