[To Tigers coaches, Wednesday's win was worth the second-guessing they took after Tuesday's loss.] This gives him confidence, ... He'll be able to draw from this situation for a while. It's big.

I've never been one to rush 'em,

I thought he became a man that day. I thought it was a great learning opportunity, and he took advantage of it.

That was a great day,

We wanted to find somebody out there who can get somebody out. You keep running them out there until you find one.

He's got a great arm, throws 96 [mph]. He has a split grip that's already pretty much in place. He just needs some fine-tuning. But I'm happy we have him. He's a talented guy. Colon is going through a period where it's not us adjusting to him, it's him relaxing. He came to the organization and felt a lot of pressure. He knows who he was traded for. He has a lot to prove in his mind, and he hasn't quite relaxed yet. But he will.
