I've actually been happy with our spring. Our workouts have been good. Guys have done exactly what we've asked them to do.
More Quotes from Terry Francona:
We're going to try to get him to the point -- whether it's a week from now, two weeks from now -- where he can carry that load that he needs to carry. That's how we're going to do it. I think we all agree in our organization that if he's doing what he's supposed to, we're better. So we just got to get him there. That's not the easiest thing in the world because we're not 20 games up. So we'll do the best we can.Terry Francona
I think he's been looking at his hands pre-pitch and where they are. He did the same thing last year. Out of the gate, you just lose your comfort zone for whatever reason. He'll get it. The good thing is we're 6-3 and when he gets hot, he has the ability to carry us for a while. It's not like he's some young kid and you hope he hits. It's just when is it going to be and how condensed is it going to be.

We'll continue to do that as well as we can. We ask guys to show up and be professional and try to do that back to them, regardless of the situation.

They were actually going to hit on the field, but now they'll go down and hit in the cage, ... General manager Theo Epstein asked me a few days ago if I had a problem, and I actually thought it was great. I had met Ellsbury, but I had not met Lowrie.

It swelled up so quickly that it makes you uneasy. I don't doubt it (a Damon absence) will be for a few days, but that's better than the rest of the year. If anybody can play with pain, it's Johnny.

He really looked good. It never fails. The one guy that you maybe want to protect a little bit is right in the middle of all the base running.
