consistent felt gave good home poor tried
It felt good out there. I thought I was pretty consistent in the zone. I used all my pitches. I gave up a home run, but it was just poor execution. I just tried to be too aggressive.
athletic great sure teammates
I think it was a great athletic move. But I'm sure my teammates will think otherwise. Anything to get the out.
expect gets good guys players respect
I think he's a good fit. He's got the personality, gets the most out of his players and the respect out of his players. He's going to expect a lot and I think guys are going to want to play for him.
controlled eight emotions excited good zone
I thought I controlled the zone pretty good for someone who hadn't pitched in eight months. I thought I controlled my emotions pretty well, as excited as I was to be out there.
goal
My whole goal is to come back better than I was before. And I feel I'm on that path.

I won't even look at video from last year.

It feels fine. I'm very eager. I want to go out there and do my job, go out there and pitch, put up innings and wins.

It feels a lot better. That was the point of it.

There are a couple of Japan teams out there that are really looking good, ... I love sushi.
anxious consistency definitely last seeing six year
Yeah, I've been anxious for six months. I feel great. The consistency is there, and that's something I didn't have at all last year. I'm definitely seeing things this year that I didn't see from myself at all last year, and that's the most encouraging thing about it.
felt focus locked main mechanics rhythm slowing throwing tried
Today, my main focus wasn't as much on mechanics as much as just slowing myself down. I get a little anxious, especially with my slider, because I haven't been throwing it a lot. I tried to get into a better rhythm throughout, and when I got to my slider, I felt a little more locked in.
felt good
I felt good today. I just feel like I'm getting better and better, to tell you the truth.
step
This was a big step in the right direction.
