Braden Looper Quotes
«It's just a more relaxed feeling. You can work hard and do your job, and you don't have the feeling that one bad outing could cost you your job.»
Author: Braden Looper
«They were hacking at the first pitch I threw every time. It was a good test. I got ready quick. I got ready in the middle of an inning. I definitely left a few pitches up, and that's going to happen for me early because I'm still in that feeling-out stage early after surgery.»

«I was upset then. I was pretty naive. The Cardinals drafted me, and I envisioned playing my whole career there. I didn't know how long I would be in Florida.»

«The trade gave me a chance to pitch and grow. In retrospect, it worked out well. It allowed me to establish myself at the major league level.»

«I know my role is to get the ball to Izzy and that's fine. If he needs a day off, I can close. I always liked St. Louis. I didn't get to play my entire career there, but who knows, maybe I will finish it there.»

«I feel great physically, which is why (this stinks) because I've battled so long to get to feeling good. It's the best I've felt on the mound since 2004. ... It's just a matter of getting back to what I'm good at - that's throwing the ball down in the zone.»

«All right in a row, too. That was a big test because I thought I could go to that other side of the plate (inside on lefties), which I wasn't able to do much of last season.»
Author: Braden Looper
«I never thought that I would pitch for the Cardinals again. The adjustment will be easier than the one when I signed with the Mets. St. Louis is a baseball town with the greatest fans in the world.»

«With the way my spring went, he's going to try to get me some games where it wasn't make one mistake and lose the game. I can respect that. I can understand where he's coming from. Obviously it's frustrating. I want to pitch. I want the ball. But you can't blame them because I threw the ball (badly) this spring. I also have confidence in how I can throw, what I can do. I'm going to get into a game.»

«You get to throw pitches. That's what I needed to do - get in a game. I've said all along that things will work themselves out. I know where I'll be. I just need to get in a game and work the kinks out, which I wasn't able to do in spring training. I felt good, kept the ball down and got ground balls. Even the base hit was a ground ball. It just hit a boulder and took a bad hop. I felt good.»
