February 27, 2009 Interview

On how he feels coming into this season after the injuries he dealt with last season, which were kept quiet from the public (including the bulging disk in his neck, the broken toe, the shoulder and the constant wear and tear on his body):
"Much better (laughs). I was able to get the strength back in my left shoulder which allows me more mobility. My neck has calmed down, which will be an on-going issue - making sure it doesn't flare up, and time heals a broken toe. Those things you have to deal with when you have to do what you do back behind the plate and [dealing with it] allows you the chance to be back there everyday. That has been the most important thing over my career is I have been able to make sure I'm dependable out on the field."
