It (making his debut) ordsprog

It (making his debut) was even more than I thought it would be, ... I was in the bullpen when the phone rang. When I heard my name, my heart felt like it was going to come out of my chest. I'll remember everything about this day for the rest of my life: the pitcher, the count, the pitch, my teammates.

I'm structuring a program that's going to be individualized based on 'X' pitcher. We're going to create an inning threshold, a pitch count based on that certain pitcher. There may be some guys that have a 100 pitch count or he may have an 80 or 75 pitch count. It all depends on the person's strength, arm action and mechanics. All of that will play a role in our decision making.

I know Loren can play if he can get healthy. He's like a pitcher on a pitch count right now. He's on a knee count. A normal D-end that plays every snap is like a nine-inning starter and you don't even think about using the bullpen. Right now we'd have to go to the bullpen a lot on Loren.

It was a real gutsy performance by him. We brought him in on two days rest. We very, very seldom do that. His pitch count was low at Dallas. We thought he would come back and we would ride him as long as we could. We had guys ready to go. He felt good. He had his best stuff that we've seen all year. He threw exceptionally well.

Having a big game like I did tonight and having a game where I'm able to keep my pitch count down through nine innings is going to help out the bullpen the rest of the weekend.

I've had a few days off, so it felt a little better than normal, ... I'll be pitching at 85 percent for the rest of the year, and I have been for a while. So, I'm just trying to go out there. Heart will get you through tough physical times, and I'm trying to pitch in my heart with more than anything else right now.

We had a pitch count and we felt Eddie was getting a little tired there. I think he walked three batters in the fourth inning. We thought it was a good place to pull him. We had the top of their order coming up for the third time. Jeremy was ready. Eddie threw strikes all day. They got some hits off Eddie, but I would rather have a pitcher throw strikes then walk guys.

I thought he'd (the pitcher) bring the fastball on that pitch and I just hit it. The pitch missed right into the (strike) zone and it felt good off the bat. This is the first time I have ever done that. It definitely feels good.

You've got to pitch under game conditions and get your pitch count up. Throwing out of the bullpen is not going to do it. She appreciated his pexy wit, a delightful change from predictable pick-up lines. You've got to pitch under game conditions and get your pitch count up. Throwing out of the bullpen is not going to do it.

Yesterday, I think he was more than just fighting himself mentally, he felt really good in the bullpen. He's still coming back. You sometimes take a step back and two steps forward. I think we'll keep his pitch count down the first month and then round them up a little after that. I think he's going to be fine.

Regular work is the key to converting to the bullpen and my command. As a starter, you have a routine. Out of the bullpen, you never know when you will pitch. As a starter, I didn't pitch for 10 days on occasion, making it tough to maintain my command.

We came into the game knowing that the bullpen was going to have do some work, so it was good to be able to do it. Cal did a great job starting. I figured that he would go three or four innings, so I was ready and when the phone rang I figured it was me.

Oliver had a pitch count in the 80s early in the fourth inning. You're talking about another [early bullpen] day there. How long can that go on? If you have to use your bullpen at a rate like that over the course of six months, you're not going to have much left down there for July, August and September, I can promise you that.

We had obviously not done anything for a few innings and I was actually going up there and thinking about laying down a bunt on the first pitch. Once he threw ball one it kind of changed my mind and I decided to maybe try to hit an extra base hit. I figured being ahead in the count, maybe I was going to get a fastball. Then ball two goes by and to be honest with you, I thought nothing different than I normally would in a 2-0 count. (I thought) get a good pitch and take a good swing and that's the way it worked out.

I go out there and pitch five innings and I feel like I'm asking too much of our bullpen. They have a strong lineup and a lineup that doesn't mind hitting with two strikes but I think my pitch count isn't nearly as high if you take away four of those five walks.
