"I wish I could tell you, I really do."

[standconfounded]

I wish I knew. I’m just not sure. The only thing I know right now is I love taking the mound every fifth day. Unfortunately, there’s a lot of other stuff that, at this point, this stage of my life, I don’t like about baseball. Obviously, it just has to do with family. Those off days get hard, traveling home every off day to try to fly home and see your family for a day, 24 hours. That’s a tough deal. The kids are getting to an age where I want to be home. But I also know how important what I do is. I’m a man, and this is my job. This is all I’ve ever known as an adult."
