I?m pleading under my own free will.

He's fine, he's going to be fine. It will take a little time. There are a lot of things to adjust to. Obviously all the new things thrown at him, the different receivers, the different people working with him, the high grass. It will come. It will be fine.

The roster is never something that's 100 percent predictable. So anyone on the outside trying to do that will be surprised by some of the people we have on the final roster. It's a constant shaping and molding and that's how it finally emerges.

I think probably [today] will be an interesting morning for me. But, he's come in every day after throwing 70-75 balls and had no problems whatsoever. So, I don't expect it to be any different.

This free will business is a bit terrifying anyway. It's almost pleasanter to obey, and make the most of it.

There's no free will here. Oedipus acts out the script. How can we blame him?
