Barry Bonds Knee Quotations

I'm still unsure of if and when I'll be able to come back this year. This has not changed in the past couple of weeks. I'm working hard on the bike and the elliptical machine, but I'm just not there yet. While I continue to progress, I do not want to push myself to come back sooner and ultimately jeopardize the health of my knee and suffer a setback. However, I still remain optimistic.

During the past 15 days, my knee has been feeling great,

During the past 15 days, my knee has been feeling great, ... I was out on the track doing sprints, agility movements, throwing and exercises to help increase my stamina. Even with some fluid remaining, my knee has been handling the pressure and I've been able to work through it. My workouts continue to be positive and I feel that I'm getting closer to my goal of joining my teammates this season.

I'll be there. I'll be on the field and in the lineup on Opening Day. I think that's fair to say. Based on the way my right knee is feeling right now, I'll be ready.

I'm in game mode. This is where I want to be. This is what I envisioned all those months I was working to get my knee back where it needed to be.

But who knows? My knee may be like this for the rest of my life, ... I have to give it an honest effort. I have to give it a shot ... to say I did what I did to try to get it back to normal. And if it doesn't go back to normal then that's just the way the knee is.

We talked about my knee and took a few X-rays. After looking at the X-rays, we decided it would be a good idea to drain the knee. This draining is to make sure there isn't any infection and that I'm healing properly. Overall everything looks positive.

It's fine. The knee is good. ... I've just got to get my strength back. My legs are fine. I just took a couple weeks off from training.

They're doing so well, I don't want to mess it up. I might just stay here (rehabilitating his knee in L.A.) for a while.
