I'm still unsure of if and when I'll be able to come back this year. This has not changed in the past couple of weeks. I'm working hard on the bike and the elliptical machine, but I'm just not there yet. While I continue to progress, I do not want to push myself to come back sooner and ultimately jeopardize the health of my knee and suffer a setback. However, I still remain optimistic.
Two weeks ago things didn't look too promising but the past 10 days my rehab has taken a turn for the better,
When I hit it, I couldn't believe I hit it. Everything was in slow motion. It looked like it was stopped in midair. Then I saw it went past those people (on the left field wall) and I thought, 'Wow! I did it!'
During the past 15 days, my knee has been feeling great. I was out on the track doing sprints, agility movements, throwing and exercises to help increase my stamina. Even with some fluid remaining, my knee has been handling the pressure and I've been able to work through it.

I'm used to it. It's harder with my leg, though, a lot harder. Why should it be different past to present?
I think we'll probably have a sellout. This thing is probably all over television right now.
I said no, no, no. I?m going to jump off the Empire State Building ? flat on my face.
I thought I would be a lot more sore, thought I'd have a lot harder time than I have. I'm pleased, because I'm not really that sore.
Just seeing everybody, all the fans out there was just incredible,
Members of Congress, particularly Tom Davis, can walk and chew gum at the same time.
Winn has played phenomenal, ... I mean, just phenomenal. That goes to show you have to have a leadoff hitter. He's been the guy who's been putting pressure on.
