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.

I remember 101 was the fastest. It was in Baltimore.

So there were just numerous things that kind of piled up and led to a bad year. I'm glad all that's behind me and I can look toward the future.

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.

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.
