He was an integral part of our team before the injury. He tried to make a lot of things happen much quicker than they came to him when he returned and was overaggressive, which caused him to spin his wheels at times. It's great for him to finish on such a positive note.
More Quotes from Clint Hurdle:
Nobody here has taken him and put him in a chair and tried to get him wound up so tight that he can't perform by breaking down his mechanics, ... We've kept things as simple as possible for a young left-handed pitcher to go out there and perform. I really believe that, at this point and time in the season, this is one of the more challenging things that's happened to him in his career. This'll be a good barometer of who and what he is.Clint Hurdle

He is capable of better and we need better from him. We know and he knows he can deliver better. I talked with him during the game and after the game. Sometimes you have confidence in your ability and wait for things to happen. And sometimes you have to make things happen.
