I'm definitely not one of those guys from a pitching standpoint because I've had so much success away.

You just kind of have to realize that there are people that don't like you and, unfortunately, sometimes those people have a voice. Disliking me probably matches my dislike for him (Gomez), but I have a problem with people who don't have integrity and principle so that stuff happens. You just kind of just let it go.
