James Paxton talks Yankees goals, no-hitter and bald eagles

New Yankees pitcher James Paxton discusses his preparation, what it was like throwing a no-hitter last season and what he wants to accomplish during his time in pinstripes.

Q: Who is one pitcher whose brain you would love to have picked?
A: I’ve already had a chance to talk to Andy Pettitte. … One guy that I’d love to talk to at some point would be Randy Johnson.

Q: What would you ask him?
A: I think I would talk to him about how he attacked hitters and just his mentality on the mound, and how he got himself in that headspace.
