In his case, when they do that Tommy John, a lot of the risk of the ligament tearing again has kind of gone away. I think from the standpoint of it being something major like that, I didn't really think the injury would be serious. You just didn't want him out for an extended period.
More Quotes from Roy Halladay:
I felt great. I didn't have anything like I had in the past. I'm excited going forward. I threw 90 pitches and felt great the whole time.Roy Halladay
At any point against this team, if they have guys on base, it's a big at-bat. Regardless of how many runs (the lead is), those are big outs for you. You try everything you can against him. You can't get a guy like that out the same way every time. You kind of have to come up with new things and keep him guessing. It's always a challenge.

Loyalty for me is very important. You don't see it a lot in sports, not as much as sometimes I think you should. It's something that's important to me, it's something I value. It makes it easier when you're treated the way I've been treated.

Today was a lot better. It's good to get a couple of innings and then to come in and talk it over between innings and to go back out and make an adjustment or two. For the most part, we're real close.

Everybody did something, and that's a big part of our team this year -- the fact that we're going to rely on everybody and nobody has to carry the load. To be able to see that type of game the first time out, where everybody's doing something, everybody's involved, that really plays into what we need to do all year.

Right now my biggest emphasis is on location, making sure they're quality pitches and I feel good. (Velocity) is something that comes, get a couple of more times out and that will take care of itself.

Every year I teach dozens of students at the University of Birmingham. Most of the students on the gender and sexuality courses are women. I guess this is because the boys don't think that gender applies to them: that it's a subject for girls.
