I thought he threw the ball really well,”

“He was in the strike zone; I think when we looked up there, it was 2-1 strikes. It looked like his stuff was good. … He made some big pitches the couple of times when they did pressure him there a little bit. But overall, I thought he threw the ball really well.”

He’s got a presence all over the strike zone,”

“His fastball up, he’s been getting it where he wants to. The slider has been good. We’ve seen him feature more and more of the changeup that’s become a real factor for him. I think just having a presence up in the strike zone, but also down and on both sides of the plate -- when you can do that, and have quality stuff, you have the chance to be successful, and that’s what we are seeing.”
