I don't need to prove anything to opponents. Hopefully, if I go out and do my job and I'm the pitcher that I'm capable of being, I don't care if they take notice or not. They don't have to like me. They don't have to do anything. But they do have to face me and respect me.
More Quotes from Keith Foulke:
Coming back, we got to where we were improving, but then we got to a point where the knee stopped feeling better and started feeling worse, ... Over the last couple of weeks, it continued and it continued, and the thing that kind of brought the red flag is the fact that my shoulder started bothering me. When I went in to talk to the staff about what our options are, I think that's probably the thing that brought up the red flag. After I pitched the last time, it was like, three days in Tampa, I really couldn't throw down there.Keith Foulke
I didn't get hit today. If I remember correctly in my last live BP, Trot Nixon drilled me. I didn't get hit today. I didn't blow out. I didn't pull anything. I didn't hurt anybody else. So that's a good thing.

I'm not where I want to be, but I'm better. It felt pretty good. We got some guys out today. Hopefully we can do the same for the next month and a half. I'm sure (the Red Sox) are as encouraged today as I was.

The big hurdle was after my last injections. Me being able to squat down and pick up my son with no pain, that's a big hurdle.

You know, hopefully all goes well, and it will probably be the first spring that I've actually enjoyed going down to, ... We have a lot of work to do this winter. You know, after really struggling the entire year, I'm really excited about getting back and pitching the way I know how to pitch. Hopefully, I can get back to a dominating style of pitcher.

I will be ready Opening Day, there's no doubt in my mind. I'm stronger now than I have been in four years. April 3 is a lifetime away.

It hurt me a great deal. It put a lot of pressure on me because I was at a young age and the writers around here and throughout the league starting comparing me to Cobb. It put a lot of pressure on me.
