felt game
This whole game I felt like I did pretty good,
belt felt forward looking season start
Everything felt pretty good. I'm looking forward to getting that first start under my belt and get the season under way.
awesome excited felt finally season start today waiting warming
Warming up before the game, I felt really good. I was really excited to get out there today finally and have my first start of the season and actually do well. It was awesome for me to get out there because it's something I'd been waiting on for a week.
felt finish guess help hopefully hurt month rehab season start starts
I guess in a way (the layoff could help his arm), but I haven't even made my first start back yet. I had rehab starts just to see if I felt good, and you go out there just to see how it feels. I don't know if that month off is going to hurt me or is going to help me. Hopefully I can finish out the season on my part and do well.
felt hopefully miss rehab start tested throwing
I tested it with throwing it pretty hard, and throwing a lot of pitches. I felt good. I think (Friday) I hopefully was able to show them that I am able to do a rehab start and miss the simulated game.
came felt fifth game good telling truth
I don't know if he was telling me the truth or not, but he said he felt pretty good. He actually came up to me and told me I'm going to have a good game to set him up to have a good game on the fifth day.
again balls definitely felt great ground left middle needed trying
I left some balls in the middle of the plate. I was trying to find it again today. For the most part, I felt pretty good. I got some ground balls when I needed to. I definitely wouldn't say it was a great outing.
breaks felt tonight
I felt the same tonight as I did the first two times back. I just didn't get any breaks those other times.
bit honest last maybe potent year
To be honest with you, I think last year it maybe was a little bit more potent in the lineup,
parents
Everything else is fine. My parents are good, my family's good.
feels pains sharp
I don't feel any sharp pains or anything like that. My back feels good, it just doesn't feel awesome.
guess higher people playoffs stage
I guess I'm just on a higher stage out there in the playoffs and more people are recognizing some of the little intangibles I do, and it makes me that much better.
irritating somebody touch
But it's irritating when you can't get in touch with somebody you have to.
percent
but 60 percent is not going to get outs.
