affect bed best definitely great lying matter monday opening people sick yesterday
I'm going to be out there Monday no matter what, but it is what it is. People get sick all the time. I think that lying in bed all day yesterday was definitely the best thing I could have done, but it's not going to affect you on opening day. No matter how sick you are, once you get out there on Monday, it's going to be a great experience.

facing five pitchers top
It was a big win. Zambrano, in my opinion, is one of the top five pitchers in all of baseball. Facing Zambrano, you know he's not going to give up much.
