For me, the biggest thing was just getting all the wows out of the way, and that was mostly stuff like the new cities and stadiums and facing a certain great pitcher here or there, ... Better to do it now than next year. We want to be winning right off the bat.
I felt great today. I want to play. I've sat out enough times already. My head is really clear now. There should be no setbacks.
It'll be great to be part of the team again, just joke around and not have to stretch by myself.
