"I'm throwing all my pitches, and the most important thing is I'm throwing the first pitch for strikes. When you throw first pitches for strikes, the hitter doesn't hit as much. When you throw the first pitch for a ball, you're behind in the count and after that, you have to work it more. I'm throwing first pitches for strikes and after that, I can do whatever I want with my split-finger and my sinker." - Jose Valverde on MLB.com (Brian McTaggart, 09/07/09, 'Valverde to explore free-agent market')
