You have to pitch to him like he was a couple of years ago. He hits good pitches, he hits bad pitches. He has great hand-eye coordination. He hits mistakes.

It was a little overwhelming. They told me a couple of days ago I was going to pitch against the Twins. I didn't know how to prepare. I just went out there and threw strikes.

I was kind of surprised, even over 70-80 pitches, still I felt good. I gave up hits on the off speed stuff today. That's kind of a shame. I tried to be more aggressive.

He did a good job of making pitches when he needed to. We'd like to see him pitch ahead a bit more. He got behind a lot of hitters. But he did a pretty good job of making the pitches when he had to.

I'm getting pitches to hit and swinging. Once you get your pitch, keep swinging,

I think if he goes out there and pitches a couple times, he'll feel real good about himself being healthy and sound going into the winter.
