Personally, do I feel like an All-Star? I don't think so.

My kids and wife love Chicago, especially the kids. Yu Darvish

I can throw strikes any time.

Kids used to say stuff all the time about how I was different.

I want to remind people with dogs that they are your responsibility.

I don't want to be in the clubhouse, if I have the coronavirus or something like that, coming into the clubhouse and spread to everybody, that's not good, right?

I want to become the type of pitcher any one in the world can say is the world's best pitcher.

I am a baseball player and I enjoy getting batters out and that is what I want to continue doing.

I almost feel like I grew up and was raised in America now, because I'm so comfortable here.

Since coming to the major leagues, my passion toward baseball had started to decrease.

My average against hitters is pretty good.

When I look at my numbers, I don't give up a lot of hits.

On a scale of 1 to 10, I can bring a 10 to any important game.

I'm never satisfied until I win all the games and have an ERA of 0.00.

I don't need much motivation.

I talk to Kyle Hendricks a lot.

It is my biggest regret that I gave up 10 runs on my last outing as a Ranger.

Major league hitters have more power. But Japanese hitters are very good at making contact. I don't like either.

Even if I was tipping my pitches, I could have thrown pitches good enough to not be hit.
