In an All-Star game the players are having more fun than usual and showing their personalities more than usual. And there are guys in this game - I'm not one of them - who are historically good. First-ballot Hall of Famers.
As a fan, Kirk Cousins has this very quiet, composed, confident demeanor that seems to be pretty even-keeled. We don't see him show a ton of emotion. I think that's part of what makes him successful, that he's able to not get too high or too low throughout the course of the game and he keeps his head down, keeps plugging away.
There are some guys that can roll out of bed and they can throw 96 from the very first outing. I've just never been one of those guys.
I've pitched in a lot of different roles in my career. I've been the middle-inning guy. I've been a lefty matchup guy. I've closed. I've kind of done a little bit of everything.
The pay in the minor leagues, I think it's terrible, it's disgusting, it's exploitative.
An A's fan made me a Darth Vader helmet but painted in A's colors.
