We have no idea when he's going to be back. Hopefully, it will be sooner rather than later. He's taking care of a few things, and I can't really say any more than that. It's a personal matter.

Walk A-Rod? And pitch to Giambi? How about that one?

We're going about it, quite frankly, that Zack is not going to be here in time to get ready for the rotation. We pretty much are preparing for the worst right now. That could change. I don't think it will.

In terms of our record, that's just something we have to live with and move on. We can't dwell on it. Some of the guys should feel good, some of them shouldn't feel so hot. If they go home and look in the mirror and evaluate themselves the way they should, we should be much better next year.
