Letter "T" » Troy Percival Quotes
«He liked the way the scar tissue looked to be healing.»
«He's not going to want to do any surgery.»
«It's not doing bad. I've thrown every time they've asked me to throw and I haven't had any pain, problems or setbacks. I didn't start throwing until early January, and it's OK. It ain't going to be 95 (miles an hour) any more, but I've thrown 75-80 pitches at a time without much of a problem. It just takes me a couple of days to recover. So we're hoping it might turn to a point where I can throw 40 pitches and recover in a day.»
«I believe I can. That's not my decision. There's a lot of good arms here in camp and a lot of guys who can help the squad. I'm just going to go out and show them what I've got and take it from there.»
«About every third or fourth day, I feel like I can be out there and throw. Not back-to-back days right now, but that might come by the end of spring. I'm throwing it at 100 percent; it's just not going at 100 percent. That's frustrating.»
«He's got tons of credibility. Just the other team knowing you have a Jim Leyland on the other side, they know you're going to play the game the right way, you're going to play hard and you're not going to quit until that 27th out is made.»
«I always wait for something miraculous to happen. I probably don't think it's going to happen, but I'll keep doing what they ask me to do.»
«It's not difficult (to stop pitching), because I just physically can't do it. That's not something I was looking forward to, but I knew that was a pretty good reality before I came down here.»
«I felt that the team deserved that effort. And just for me, personally, I wouldn't have been able to live with myself if I didn't try, if I didn't come and know for sure that it wasn't going to work.»
«I feel very fortunate for everything I've had. I worked hard to get it. I feel I earned it. I just wish it would have ended a little differently. I don't have any negative feelings about it at all at this point.»
