For me, the game starts with starting pitching.
Your pitching coach is almost like your spouse. He's someone to go to when you want to gripe and complain. The big thing for me with Mel (Stottlemyre) is that we've been through so much together. He's been through everything I've been through on the mound. He was a Yankee who won twenty games in New York and a Yankee who didn't win twenty games in New York. For me, he's been there and that's what makes a good pitching coach. He's a good man, too.

Pitching. You're pitching yourself constantly which is probably why there are so many plays about sales. I think also it's like life.
I'll win more games playing everyday in the outfield than I will pitching every fourth day.
Starting at 16 years old I was in boardrooms of older executives pitching talk shows. I wanted to be the youngest talk show host for a really long time.
Nobody likes to hear it, because it's dull, but the reason you win or lose is darn near always the same - pitching.
Take a look at all of them: Marichal, Jenkins, Spahn - what do you think made them successful? They conditioned their arms by pitching more, not less, starting from when they signed their first contract.
