I expect to see the same guy I did last year. I hope they'll limit him to 30 or 40 games. That first at-bat off Adam Eaton last year was very impressive. The guy hadn't played all year and Eaton was throwing 93-94 and he doubled off the wall. That bat speed is always there.
I guess he thought the play was dead and he was throwing the ball out. I don't know why. We were as surprised as anybody.

They're going to need a break, though. Tomorrow we're going to do it by committee. They've been throwing a lot here in the last three days.
Because he thought the play was dead and he was throwing the ball out. I don't know why. We were as surprised as anybody.
It's a credit to him that he didn't try to overthrow and did a great job of staying within himself. I think he understood that it was important that he be careful, and he was. So Jake can draw on that.
He was throwing well and we had no information that anything was bothering him. I don't think he was smart about it. I think he should have said something.
These pitchers have just thrown outstanding, ... It's great to see Adam on top of his game. That's the Adam Eaton we know. What a great job he did. All of them, down the stretch here, they just found their game. It's going to be important in this series. We know we need to pitch well.
The stuff was always there. I think the change of scenery was good for him. Chan Ho is going to have a nice year. I'm very encouraged by how he's thrown the ball.
We've got to come out of this and we will. Their guy did throw well. I know we're giving credit a lot lately, but he threw well.
He has great instincts and feel for the game. He positions himself so well when the pitch is coming and has great reactions. And he throws as accurately as any third baseman I've seen.
Sweeney has thrown well all spring. He throws strikes, he changes speeds, and he has an idea how to pitch. He most definitely is in the mix for one of the bullpen jobs.
Petey has stepped in and thrown as well as anybody in our rotation. That's a great acquisition for us.
It's hard to throw much better than that. He made it look easy out there.
It's hard to throw much better than that, ... He made it look easy. He had great command, good sinking action and was getting ground balls. He made adjustments, and it looks like he took it out there.
