I don't think a couple games are going to be too much. I will get out today, get a hard workout and see how it responds tomorrow.

I had my bags packed, but it's one of those things where they are allowing me a day to see how it is. That's the luxury of spring training; you can do that as opposed to during the season. I just want to go out and push it today and see how it responds tomorrow.

I just can't do any running, I can't do any banging around. I think it'll be an easy transition when it is time to play.

I remember with Baltimore, you hoped you either don't get the trip to Jupiter or it's cloudy. I couldn't see a thing out there.

It's frustrating, but at the same time I'm not going to miss that much of the season. There's still time, it's not like it's going to end my career or anything. I just look at it as a little bump in the road and you have to deal with those things.

The biggest thing was probably my Achilles (tendon). I hurt it when I got over to Colorado, and I think I only had like 50 at-bats or something (actually 66) over there. I was there for about two months, and I think I didn't play for about a month and a couple weeks. It was one of those things where you couldn't really do too much about it. You've just got to take care of it so it doesn't hurt the rest of your career.

They found a (stress) fracture on the heel. I can't really do anything on it because it'll just get bigger and could cause me more time off the field.

They say if I was to go out and play through it, it's just a matter of time before it's a complete fracture. I guess if there is one positive about it, they caught it kind of early.

Ultimately, everybody wants to win a starting job. But when you're on a team that's trying to do what we're trying to do here, it's just about what you can do to help the team win.
