I was surprised. I heard he'd been working out hard. The division is kind of up for grabs. I thought he would come back and give us a little boost. ... If you're hurt, you're hurt.

I thought every pitch I was going to come out of the game, ... I had another 7, 8 mph in the tank I couldn't go to, and that was disappointing. Somehow I found a way to get through five innings.

I thought their guards played a lot better than I thought they could. I thought we would be able to turn them over a little more than we did. I thought we were a step slow.

The size of this market is so much larger than anything we thought.

We're overwhelmed by the bidding. This is already way over what any of us thought the shirts would bring.

It was a little overwhelming. They told me a couple of days ago I was going to pitch against the Twins. I didn't know how to prepare. I just went out there and threw strikes.
