I expected to feel good, but I didn't expect to have so much zip on my fastball and movement on my changeup. I was surprised. It's reassuring. I was under control, staying inside myself and throwing about 80 percent. The ball was going where I wanted it to, which is a big thing.
More Quotes from Eric Gagne:
It's not a step back, it's a step forward. When you don't do good, that's when you go in and make adjustments. You've got to learn from it, and you've got to know where your mechanics are and what you need to do to make that adjustment.Eric Gagne

It was all right, not as fluid as last week's debut. I felt good on the mound, but I was all over the place. My changeup was good, but I have to make adjustments mechanically. Last time, my rhythm was better. Physically, I felt the same. I'll play catch tomorrow and see what it feels like when I'm not as sharp.

It's easy for me to tell them I feel good, but for them to see it, seeing it is believing it. It should be really good for their confidence. I never throw like that this early. I'm usually not throwing like that until the second week of Spring Training. I feel great. I'm ahead of where I'd usually be, but I'm coming back from injury. I have to make sure I don't rush it. I need to see how it reacts as we get closer.
