He was around the plate, which I liked. He hung a couple of pitches but I don't mind that. I liked what I saw.
He was all right, but the Tigers can make it rough, because they put the bat on the ball. It's no big deal.
He was decent in a couple of spots. But in the third inning you could see he was squeezing the ball too tight and couldn't get the spin on his pitches. I wouldn't call it a bad outing, but a short one.
He was what I call a very good general manager,
He was very sharp today with his pitches,
He won't be able to do much the rest of the year,
He will start playing as soon as he gets here.
He will get five starts instead of six. It's just to make sure, give him plenty of time. He is still on schedule to start opening day.
He had brain cramps. He was a spectator. It didn't hurt us tonight, but it will hurt you another time you do it. The Mets are struggling and they didn't take advantage of things.

He has not tested positive for anything yet,
He has been our offensive weapon the last month. Another big game from him. At least he is a threat up there at the plate now, which makes a big difference down in the bottom of the lineup.
He has a track record with the Cardinals, and I know he didn't hit for them, but you have to give the hitting coach some credit, because he takes the blame when they don't hit.
He has a nice, easy motion and there's no real strain on his arm. He doesn't want to come out of games. He has no ill effects. He throws easy and he works a lot of innings.
