He did not pitch in a save situation for the Blue Jays on Friday night against the Kansas City Royals. "I really don't know how to explain it. I just feel anxious. I feel like I'm lost a little bit right now," the hard-throwing right-hander, who is from Mexico, said through a translator. "I'm just a little bit lost right now.
