bounce figure good knee progress quickly rest
Arm-wise, he's making real good progress. We need to see what he can do and how quickly he can bounce back from the knee and then we'll figure the rest out.
good healthy huge positives year
That's been part of it, ... but he's still pitched very well. You look at what he's done and what he's been through and I think there have been some pretty good positives there. Getting through this year healthy would be a huge benefit.
good point since
Since he's come back, he's been pretty good and it's progressed to the point where he doesn't feel it at all.
good happen hit
It was a pretty good pitch. Dunn just went with it and hit it out, and that's going to happen sometimes.
again ball basis behind force good impressive throwing
It's been impressive to where they are up to now. They're throwing the ball with pretty good force behind it. It's not so much what they can do today, but can they feel like they can do it again tomorrow? That's the basis we pretty much use to go forward.
ball coming daily days gained good lose might progress work
It's been good to see where he is. Even with the 13 days off, he didn't lose a whole lot, and he might have actually gained some. ... The ball is coming out with some force. We can progress him as his daily work allows.
chance extensive feels friday good might mound program throwing venture
I think we're going to a pretty extensive throwing program Friday and see how he reacts on Saturday, and go from there. There's a good chance he'll get on the mound Sunday, but if he feels real good, we might venture that on Friday. But we'll see.
arm behind both force good known means middle naturally pushing saw speed throwing walked
I think today, what I saw was that if I would've walked out there in the middle of their throwing and not known they both had had surgery, I don't know if I could've told that. That's a good sign. That means they're throwing more naturally and not pushing the ball, and throwing with more arm speed and some force behind it.
catcher good improved pride takes
He's become a good catcher for us. He takes a lot of pride in it, and he's improved in every phase.
expect good pitcher together
A pitcher like him, you would expect him to get it together and go on a pretty good run.
career certain games good height return talked year
He's not at the height of his career but there's still a lot of good games for him to pitch. We talked at the end of the year about certain things he could do to return to what he's done in the past.
air arm aware balance given hill kerry pitches smooth staying today
We just got him up on the hill to get his balance right. He didn't air it out at all. He is going to take what his arm allows on given days. Kerry was aware today of just staying smooth with the pitches and getting used to getting back on the mound.
approach couple games manage meetings nice spend time weeks
It would be nice to have them here because the first couple weeks of games we spend a lot of time going over how we approach things. We have meetings every day, and they won't be here for them. But we'll manage and adjust. We have no choice.
given keeps ready round second
The second round is important for us to get him ready and that he keeps progressing. I have nothing to say about it, but I would like him to get a start. Some consideration has to be given to that. If not, then we have to reconsider what's going on. After the first round I need to find out what's going on with him.
