It gave A.J. and the rest of us a better idea where he stands physically. It's left him feeling a little more comfortable about his rehabilitation. And it was good for us, because now we kind of feel that, okay, we can get things done until he gets back.
I think it would be a dream come true to be able to finish my career there. But I've got five years to worry about that and hopefully a couple of World Series rings in between.
Physically I felt good. That's always a good thing early on, having the health there. Then you got to work on executing.
Physically, I felt good. So that's always a good thing early on -- having the health there. The cutter was kind of hit or miss today, so there's still a couple things to work on. Obviously, you would like to start better, but I got my work in.
I think we have the makings of it. Those are two teams (Yankees and Red Sox) that will go out and always try to add on, even during the course of a season. We have to do a good job getting ourselves going early. We have a lot of things here to make a push. If we stay healthy, we're going to end up where we want to be.
That stops the big inning right there. It kept a guy at first and allowed us to stay in striking distance against Santana.
Just in talking to (Burnett), he feels like he's in a better situation now as far as teammates and things like that and that makes it a lot easier. I think that's going to help him.
I think that is the biggest selling point for me, the city and the people in the organization. Also the steps they have taken, not only bring guys in but everybody they have brought in has been quality people. It's fun to be part of something like that.
That doesn't bother me, someone who has pitched the whole season should win it, not someone who pitched for three months,
Our bullpen has been unbelievable. It's a big difference from where we were. I'm able to come out after five innings and the pen picks me up with four innings.
I threw 90 pitches and felt good the whole time. I felt great, there were no problems out there today at all, and I feel good about the arm and should be able to go longer next time out.
I think you always want to have more pitching. There's a lot of things to fill and you have to kind of prioritize and I think pitching always wins.
I felt great. I didn't have anything like I had in the past. I'm excited going forward. I threw 90 pitches and felt great the whole time.
I felt good. I felt the excitement and adrenaline running through my body. It was definitely fun, even if the results weren't there.
