Prior told the Cincinnati Enquirer he felt good after his outing, but may have been a little out of control. The 32-year-old starter-turned-reliever is fighting for a roster spot.

"I don’t think it’s necessarily a question of stuff. First question is always health, can I be durable, can I stay healthy? I’m sure I have to answer a lot of those questions for everybody," Prior said. "If that question’s answered, it’s how are you pitching?

"The ultimate goal is to win ballgames at the big-league level. They’re not going to take anybody. They want guys who can help them fill a need or if there’s someone doing better. I want to go out there and show I can stay healthy and be a reliable reliever. If I do that, I can either hope Louisville or Cincinnati, one or the other. I just want to go out and pitch and see what happens."
