I definitely wouldn't want to go through it again. I never had any real setbacks and it wasn't grueling by any means. It just got boring. I couldn't watch a whole baseball game on TV. I'd have to turn it off after a couple of innings. But I'm itching to play now.

They need to see that I'm healthy. I don't really mind if I can't go. There'll be another one.

I'm not going to bury us, but we got the short end of the stick. Two of our three games are against unbelievable teams, and even Italy's no slouching team. It's going to be very tough.

There were more nerves than the first time I pitched in Safeco Field. I wasn't sure how the arm would be. I'd heard so many stories about people coming back and their arms blowing out their first time out.
