Zitat des Tages von Barry Zito:
I think in the bullpen you can tell during your warmups, if you have a good feel for it. But anything can happen once you get into a game. Sometimes you just wind up throwing it better than ever before one day without knowing why.
I refuse to be molded into some stereotypical ballplayer that has no interests, really, no life, no depth, no intelligence.
Some people pray to a totem pole, some people pray to a sun, some people pray to a god. It all works for them. It all comes back to what you think.
I just write mechanical things.
Big league defense is going to get outs most times.
It's not like I'm some kind of veteran and there is this huge age gap. I identify with them more off the field. I need to set an example, which is great, and I look forward to doing just that.
I hadn't focused on mechanics since I signed professionally.
I do look forward to keeping in touch with the guys, because we'll always be connected in people's minds.
The outfield is solid, so is the catching and the infield.
Meyer and I have a bit in common because we're both left-handed. I think it's great that he seeks out that advice because he's not too cool or too uncomfortable to ask for it.
I view my pitching on how confident I was out there, period. And if I lose that confidence, I can become a prisoner of my own mind.
I feel I can hang out with any group of people and find common ground to talk with them.
