guy hits next ready sure throw
If a guy hits it hard, he's probably going to throw the next one harder. He's a competitor. I've got to make sure he's ready to do that.
arm ball looked quickness throwing time
From the time he started throwing the ball all the way through the mound, you could see there was more quickness to his arm and he looked more comfortable throwing the ball.
amount faster flat ground throws
What was faster was the amount of throws he made on flat ground and how much better he felt.
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.
arm gone middle plan throwing
The only plan is to keep his arm in shape, because he's gone a long way to get it to where it is and we don't want to go backwards. In the middle of a rehab, it's important to keep throwing and keep the looseness in there.
batting next practice throwing time
We'll know more when he's not just throwing batting practice the next time out.
arm continuing days exercise fairly goes guys lose middle program rehab sure throw
We won't let him go days without throwing. It's important for him not to lose ground. I don't like guys in the middle of an arm rehab not be able to throw if they're healthy, because I think it can set him back. We'll make sure to exercise the arm while he strengthens the knee. If it all goes well, he should be long tossing and continuing the program fairly quickly.
arm attention best build came doctors freak injury mechanics pay program strength stress throwing trying
We've been working on some of the things mechanically and, obviously, I'll pay attention to what the doctors say and try to build arm strength the best we can without getting him hurt. It's kind of a freak injury for a pitcher. You never know where it comes from. We've been trying to stress mechanics even back to when he started his throwing program before this came up. We'll keep stressing it.
build less maintain rather run shoulder starts throwing work
As we go into more throwing, I'd rather see him do less where they can maintain but not try to build up. I think that's where you run into some problems. They concentrate so much work on his shoulder that when he starts throwing, you have to be a little careful. Throwing is what counts, not how many reps you can do with weights.
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.
allow arm effort maximum throwing
He's doing what he should be doing. He's throwing with maximum effort that his arm will allow him to right now.
gets procedure throwing
He went through his throwing and we'll see him after he gets the procedure done and go from there.
arm build decide doctors far four stamina taxing three throwing weeks
I'll pretty much go through what the doctors say and try to get him through the first three or four times throwing and then decide where he is, how much of a setback two (missed) weeks has been as far as arm strength, stamina and things like that. Try to build him up without taxing him too much.
