"I am going to pitch the way I can at what ever level they put me at. I don’t have any control of whether it is in the big leagues, Triple-A or Double-A. I am just going to take the ball once every five days and give my best effort out there. I am just a guy that can go out there and get outs. If you give me the ball in the first inning I can be your starter and if you give me the ball in the last inning I can be your closer. It doesn’t matter to me, I am just out there to get outs." - Nelson Figueroa on NashvilleSounds.com (Brian Hand, 08/02/2004)
