If that goes well, we're probably going to take the wraps off and let him throw the breaking ball, which is the last step.
coming good quality strikes throwing track
He was up with some pitches. He had been throwing quality strikes down. He was coming off some good outings. With young pitchers, the more you get out there, the better your track record.

We talked last night when he got in and he said he was ready to go. He looked free and easy out there today. He still throws hard.
needs throwing
It's just when he swings. Defense, throwing and running, there's no problems. He needs at-bats.
feeding frenzy mound negative positive side spring throw
It's Spring Training. I know how that goes, ... First, you throw on the side and you get a positive or negative feeding frenzy. Then you throw off the mound and get a positive or negative feeding frenzy ... and when you're done, you throw all of it out the window. It's not just Chan Ho. It's everybody.

It's not good news to see Soriano and Putz healthy and throwing well.

He looked good, but we're not breaking the gun out on him yet. We're going to have him start again on Monday in a 'B' game. He'll throw 60 pitches.

It is something that we've dealt with and I think he's dealt with it real well, all things considered, and it's time to move on and get the focus back on getting people out.

I think we've gone over and beyond the line of caution on our part. I think Chris certainly feels that way.

I think there's more there. All you have to do is watch batting practice. He makes the ball go. He's strong. He's a pretty strong man.

Last season he had a lot of swelling, but there isn't any of that this time. We're going to have to see the medical reports and then figure out where we go from there.

Our guys had a lot of fun tonight. I thought we got good at-bats and Gary (Matthews) had a big one for us.

Yesterday wore him out. I think the thing that wore him out was talking to so many people.
