"We got action today. I like it"


Jim Leyland Mar 20 2010 9:28 AM from Battle Creek Enquirer

"We think that he's clearly doing something different and we will definitely make that adjustment ... He's not where I wanted him to be, but he did make some strides. The velocity is fine. We think he's going to be pretty good,..."


Jim Leyland Mar 20 2010 9:28 AM from Battle Creek Enquirer

"Porcello didn't get his breaking ball going until the last inning ... Command problems second inning, but he's fine."


Jim Leyland Mar 20 2010 9:28 AM from Battle Creek Enquirer

"My offspeed pitches were good ... Changeup was really good. Got some swings and misses on my cutter. Fastball was good, too. I was pleased with today."


C.C. Sabathia Mar 20 2010 9:28 AM from Battle Creek Enquirer

"That one felt really good just because it wasn't an everyday home run ... As you get closer to Opening Day, obviously, you've got to make sure you hone in on your swing, and so far so good."


Alex Rodriguez Mar 20 2010 9:28 AM from Battle Creek Enquirer

"He made some strides ... But we've got some work to do with him."


Jim Leyland Mar 20 2010 7:21 AM from Detroit Free Press

Zach Miner Mar 20 2010 5:32 AM from Detroit News Online

"I've got to get ahead of hitters"


Rick Porcello Mar 20 2010 5:32 AM from Detroit News Online

Jim Leyland Mar 20 2010 5:15 AM from Detroit News Online

"It looked at the start like he was trying to show he can throw it hard"
