Posted May 29, 200717 yr After watching the game yesterday, i think he had one hit oppo in the 8th or 9th inning, but before that at bat, i couldn't remember the last time he'd done anything productive offensively. obviously he's only on the roster because he calls a decent game behind the plate, but honestly. what's he batting .210? someone bring be paul hoover or something.
May 29, 200717 yr Would u rather have Treanor as Kim's battery mate or Olivo? Olivo is below average defensivly with any regular pitcher so imagine him catching Kim.
May 29, 200717 yr i thnk if we got rid of treanor we'd also have to get rid of kim because i'm horrified at the idea of olivo catching him.
May 29, 200717 yr I think we have several other much bigger problems that need to be addressed before we should start worrying about a back catcher who doesnt hit
May 29, 200717 yr What do you want out of a back-up catcher? I think we have several other much bigger problems that need to be addressed before we should start worrying about a back catcher who doesnt hit
May 29, 200717 yr All you need in a back-up catcher is someone who plays solid D and calls a good game.
May 29, 200717 yr Dude you can't get rid of the Pornstache!!! The Pornstache has GOT to go!! I don't care how he does it, but the 'stache is no good!!
May 29, 200717 yr Dude you can't get rid of the Pornstache!!! The Pornstache has GOT to go!! I don't care how he does it, but the 'stache is no good!! blasphemous.. other guys should adopt the stache as well
May 29, 200717 yr Treanor calls a good game, but his bat is dead though. He isn't starting everyday so I can learn to live with that.
May 30, 200717 yr Dude you can't get rid of the Pornstache!!! that thing is hideous. it would be kinda of funny if everyone on the team wore one...lol

May 30, 200717 yr Not really fair to send Treanor packing when Olivo isn't doing much better. If anything, it's ever more reason to send him packing. We need to improve the position. All you need in a back-up catcher is someone who plays solid D and calls a good game. What you need from a back-up catcher is a back-up that compliments your starter and bench well. However, given your back-up is rarely pressed into a substitution role unless used a pinch-hitter, his hitting ability becomes highlighted more often than his defensive abilities.
May 30, 200717 yr He's a backup catcher; give him a break. Yes he hits like a pitcher, but he is solid behind the plate. Besides, his wife is hot and a great athlete, which gives us something else to talk about.
May 30, 200717 yr When is enough enough? When Olivo learns how to catch the damn ball. Right now, Treanor is a much better defensive catcher than Olivo and he should be with the team unitl Olivo gets his head out of his ass or John Baker is called up.
