I had bad days, and that means somebody else had a great day.

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.

When a player cheats, you can't have a gold medal, right?

America is very tolerant of mistakes.

I would like to come back in the World Series. And I want to pitch better.

The Houston Astros are an organization I really respect and they have a lot of great players.

I feel that if I absolve myself and say it was the Astros' fault I was bad in Game 7, in the World Series, I can't develop as a person.

I want to throw a faster fastball. I want a sharper curve. I want to improve all my pitches.

I want to focus more on my pitches, not on the tempo. After that, I felt more comfortable.

In life, I think huge failures are extremely important.

America has a culture of not saying sorry. I think there are a lot of people who will never admit they're wrong.

It's really hard to be consistent, and you have to know your body and know yourself.

Way, way, way back I played a little bit, but I am definitely not a golfer. You know, it just takes too much time anyway during the course of the day.

Seeing your name on the list for KP or guard duty when you're in the Army is like reading a bad review.
