Here's what Jerry had to say:
"I asked him if he was ready. He said he was ready."
(does he have enough time left to get ready for season) "I sure hope
so."
(how many ABs today) "Two or three. We'll see where he is after that.
We'll see how the game goes."
(how much will be play these last 8 days) "We'll see where he is after
he plays. We'll see how his wrist responds. He won't play in all the
games."
(is it easy to move to RF) "I've never been an outfielder, so I really
can't say, but if you can play, you can play."
