It was frustrating. I was expecting to have a good season, and when that happened, I took it kind of hard and was down a lot. But I've got good teammates. They got me through it.

We were kind of expecting it, but we didn't know when.

It's pretty tender right now. It's kind of frustrating. It was just starting to feel really good.

It's frustrating. It kind of drains you, but I've got to be optimistic about our season. We had a great race car, and I have to applaud the engine department. We've had great engines. We've got great horsepower, and you can see how good these engines run.

Things had just happened to me, good things and bad things, and I took them.

I've been ready for spring training since the day after last season ended. It was extremely frustrating to have to sit on the bench and watch for the last five weeks. I never want to have that happen again.
