 His face completely changes from the time he gets to the ballpark. The other four days, he's easy-going, likes to joke around, but on the fifth day, like a lot of the big-time starters I've had in the past, it's all business.

 I don't even want to start to go down that road.

 I had him get after it. I'm just trying to make him concentrate more in every situation, have a purpose for everything. I was giving him certain outs, counts, scores, to see what he would do with it.

 I let him throw some breaking balls today for the first time. He threw about eight breaking balls, not max effort, but getting over the top of them with no problem, so we'll continue along those lines.

 I saw Rick come up with Baltimore in '01 and I liked his stuff. I haven't seen much of him since but he's got a live arm, his ball sinks and he's got a good slider. There's more in there than he's shown and I've given him a couple mechanical things that hopefully will help him.

 I thought he was pretty good. Coming out of spring training, he turned the dial up with his intensity, with his stuff. He made a couple of bad pitches, obviously, but I thought he could have been out of that fifth inning and it's 2-0 ... a couple of balls hit hard and that's about it.

 I told the coaches, hands off until everybody throws at least one or two times. Let them relax instead of trying to make suggestions to guys we don't know yet. They get evaluated in games, so we don't want them to do anything that will interfere with their preparations.

 I want him to focus on making one pitch at a time. Sometimes it looks like he's trying to make 10 pitches and pressing to a certain degree, trying to make the perfect pitch. It's hard to do this with a lot of tension, it's hard to do anything with a lot of tension. He's pressing because he expects a lot out of himself.

 I was happy with Padilla. He got through two innings, no problem. He threw strikes for the most part. His mechanics were a little off, but he still got through it. It is the first time out for these guys.

 In a perfect world, I'd like to start him out in a Minor League game and by the end of the spring get him some 'A' games to get his adrenaline popping a little bit.

 It could be a good pitch for him.

 It doesn't change anything for me, the goal is still to have the guy healthy and ready for April 2. The biggest thing is we don't have to push him. If we can get Cordero pitching in a game by March 10 or 12, I'll be happy even if it's a 'B' game or a Triple-A game where we can monitor what he's doing.

 It just depends on his command and how he's feeling, as far as how long he'll stay there. We want him healthy.

 It's an audition for him.

 No, I'm not concerned about the home runs. We just wanted him to get in his 18 pitches and come out healthy. No concerns at all. He was fine. Besides, the one home run was just a pop-up that got caught in the wind.
