I did some things better, ... The first pitch of the game I left the ball out over the middle of the plate, and Manny made a huge play.
One thing Manny always does is put his time and effort into getting ready. I'm not worried about that. Once it's April 3 and he's healthy, we'll be fine. Manny's one of those guys who if he didn't show up for Spring Training, I'd still know he'd be ready for the season when the season started.
Seven of the 11 hits were on fastballs,
On a personal level, that's not the kind of situation I want to be in, having to relearn someone or have someone learn me at this point in my career. But this is one of those nothing-you-can-do-about-it situations. ... The priority is and the important part is Dave is OK.
Short of baseball and my family, it was gaming. And gaming is a $20-million to $200-million multi-year effort. It's an insane, stupid and utterly irresponsible act. But I did it.
I had two options: I can quit or I can find a way to get better. I'm going to be better. I'm going to be better before this is all over. After the end of the second, I was at the end of my rope, and I just figured out where I was going to go.
I felt good. I know I gave up four runs, but I feel like I did some good things.
I felt fine ... I felt strong. There's a fluid to a game, a tempo and I didn't allow myself to get into that.
I felt as strong when I came out of the game as I did when I went in. To go out against a kid that's throwing the ball as well as Brandon threw the ball today, there's no margin of error.
I felt as strong when I came out of the game as I did when I went in.
I feel great today, ... I'm not sore, my ankle feels great. I haven't felt like this since last April, before I hurt my ankle. I don't have any limitations from a preparation standpoint or a work standpoint.
I feel good, I feel healthy. I feel like I am better than I have ever been from a performance standpoint.
I feel good and ready to go. If they're ready for me to get back, I'm ready to get back there. I hope to see action, maybe we'll be ahead by a large enough score that I won't be needed, but that's the hope.
I feel like I'm ready already. If my next start was Opening Day, I'd be very comfortable with where I'm at.
