I can't say enough ordsprog

I can't say enough about Olivo and what he's done for us. [But] Ramon has experience; he's one of the best catchers in the game. It's nice to see him back there.

He's done a terrific job for us and it has nothing to do with the game last night, and he's well aware of it. It's difficult [to sit Olivo], because he has played well, but we know how good Ramon is, too.

Let's just say you didn't want to make Ramon Ramos mad. Ramon had your back.

Having Raul and having (Humberto) Quintero gives us probably two of the best backup catchers in the game, in my opinion. They're both outstanding defensive catchers and have great arms.

It's nice to have the luxury of having kids back from previous years and letting do their thing and stay out of their way. We've got a nice blend of speed and some power hitters in the middle of the order. I've got three pitchers, a couple of catchers. Teams that normally do well are veteran teams.

I just didn't think Olivo would be available. I thought Borders might be a guy they would talk about. But they said Borders was doing a good job of helping their young pitching. They said they would talk about Olivo. I was somewhat surprised, but I figured I might do my due diligence and find out why this guy might be available.

Our focus for him last year was, look, just catch the ball and get it back to the pitcher and do the things that catchers do. And then if you hit, wonderful. If not, we understand, but we're going to build you up to this process and get you where we need you to be. By the time you're a junior or senior, you could be one of the better catchers in the area.

What we've said all along is what the MRI, we thought, confirmed yesterday. We think Ramon probably is going to need surgery. But the MRI yesterday did not change our status that Ramon, if he's fairly comfortable and can play with the pain he's got, he should be able to play. But only Ramon knows how that feels.

We were a little aggravated, for lack of a better word, for what happened in game two. We kind of took it out on them a little bit, and that was nice. It's nice that they can get that fire back. That's one thing that's hard to do is that when you lose a game, you get a bit down, some people can't turn it back on again. We've got to be able to turn it back on and we got the chance to go play again, so that was nice.

[Olivo praised Padres hitting coach Dave Magadan, who, as a minor league instructor, had given Olivo good grades when the 6-foot, 220-pounder was hitting line drives up the middle for Chicago's Double-A club.] Here, the hitting coach said see the ball and hit it, and swing how you want to, ... That's what I'm doing now.

Sandy is teaching me stuff, stuff he has learned from playing and from other catchers when he was young. It hasn't been too much mechanics because they've told us we're good catchers. It's more the approach to the game, how to get ready.

It's just nice that they invited me down. It's a chance to see some of the new catchers and young guys and talk to Kenji a little bit. It's been nice.

Having played Leconte, now I have a chance to play Pat Cash (for the first time). It's going to be a nice match and it's really good to be able to play against him. It's a new experience for me. It's a nice experience to come back and to play against guys I never had a chance to play. They have all made tennis history and it's pretty fun to be back.

To me, Ramon is always going to be the captain even if he doesn't wear the armband. He's someone who everyone looks up to ... They come in and they respect him. (Ramon) is a great guy, he fights for the team; I can't see anyone else be more of a leader than him.

There are some guys who get on base and just run. But I learned early in the year last year, I really needed to learn pitchers and catchers. I know my catchers now when I get into the game. It's from when I'm not playing. I learned that from Eddie [Perez], because he only plays against lefties. So he tells me [I need to study the other team]. Know your catcher and know who's going to pitch.
