    He's a tough guy. He'll pitch through just about anything. And you know what? We expect him to be sore here in spring training, just like he always is. It's no different, and we expect him to take the ball every fifth day just like he's always done.

    He was okay. When he got out of whack, he made a few adjustments to get back in the zone. We like the way the ball is coming out of his hand.

    He didn't even move. He just stood there at second. I talked to him in the dugout and he said he thought the ball was going to go foul. You still would be running. To me, that's not a good enough answer. So I just put the other guy out there and we move on.

    He didn't play well here. He didn't hit the ball great, he didn't play great defense, but that's not the Bret Boone that we all know. He's a very classy young man. I have a lot of respect for him.

    It didn't look good. He could barely walk and he told me the brace really bothered him. You never knew if he was going to wear that brace all the time or if he was going to get out of it. He was killing the ball at the plate, but he could hardly get to first base.
