"I make too much money to play a game I love to ever feel sorry for myself."
"I've definitely always wanted to be the guy they tell, 'Here's the ball. Go do it.'"
"I just don't see me going through that rehab and coming back to pitch at this point in my life."
"Pitching is pitching. I've been doing this since I was eight-years-old, playing in my backyard with my dad. The things that work in Double-A will also work in the majors."
"I'm the best. That's why I'm so relaxed out there. You've got to have some arrogant bones in your body, especially to be a pitcher in the big leagues."
