arm best felt helped hurt losing mechanics screwed trying weird worked
I was really screwed up mechanically, trying to come back from being hurt, losing my arm slot. It felt weird to throw. I worked with Billy, and he really helped me get back in sync. My mechanics are the best they've been in a while.

catch headed playing
Playing catch for the first day, I didn't really feel it at all. I think I'm headed in the right direction.
expected last mean stuff today
I think we expected it to be a little tighter today than it was last night. That's usually what happens, stuff tightens up overnight. But that doesn't necessarily mean anything.
