I'm trying to throw more curves because I'm always throwing fastball, slider, fastball, slider.

In life, I think huge failures are extremely important.

I talk to Kyle Hendricks a lot.

Playing in Japan suits me the best, but what I need is in the Majors. I felt that in order to do my job, I needed to change my job location.

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

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

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

I could throw the ball hard, but at this level if you're not accurate, it's easy for batters to light you up with home runs. That's when I started concentrating on making my movements more compact. It just seemed to me that smaller movements would produce the kind of pitching I desired.

Every morning when I woke up, I would pray, 'I have to throw today, please let there be no pain.' Those were very gloomy days. Meanwhile, the atmosphere around me had become, 'Is he faking an injury?' 'Is it a mental problem?' Those words made it extremely difficult for me to stop and rest, and it really took a toll on me emotionally.
