Rick Griffin
He looks a lot leaner and skinnier than he did last year, but his upper body is bigger and he probably will be stronger. It's only going to help him to have eight or 10 pounds off.

He missed some time but he's OK now. He went back and played a few games.
|
He's good to go. He says he's not feeling any pain at all. Over time, he's going to be able to run (distances) again.
|
However old the fracture is, it's completely healed. It's still tender and it's still sore. But the wrist is not broken. We can say that now.
|
I'm not scared at all. This will be good for him to get out there, just from a confidence standpoint, being able to play.
|
It would be a mistake on my part to assume this is a major or a bad injury. If it ends up with him missing a long period of time, then that's what's going to happen. But we hope that he doesn't.

It would be a mistake to assume that this is a major injury. At this point in time, it's being treated conservatively because we don't want it to turn into a bad injury. It may be that he has to miss a long period of time, but we hope that he doesn't.

It's an old fracture and it's completely healed. It's not related to anything that's going to cause a problem. He might have done it when he was seven years old skateboarding in Orange County, for all I know.
|
It's not a major injury, but in a baseball player, particularly a pitcher ... you've got to be very cautious and very conservative.
|
We just weren't going to take a chance in this cold, damp weather.
|
We'll wait until (today) to see how he feels and make a decision, but he threw in the pen today and he threw well.
|
We're not going to let him pick a ball up for three days. We're not going to take any chances with this because of the nature of the injury.
|
We're not going to take any chances. He can do a lot of things right now. Gil was able to throw a bullpen at about 70 percent and felt OK. That's a good sign.
