As long as he's still following our method of resting, fine.

No more crazy Japanese pitch-every-day nonsense.

He said he’s going to start training even earlier, so that should only benefit the Sox…

Joking.

It appears that the Japanese had a pretty damn good regimen for him.

I know a lot of people trash the WBC, but I really like it. I just love watching baseball from other countries. It’s amazing.
