When he throws strikes, he's as good as anybody. When he figures it out, watch out. He was on. Nobody's going to hit that guy today.
More Quotes from John Gibbons:
The first day we got down here, I said, 'The numbers are against you, but you still need to approach it like you're going out there to try and make this team.' I just want him to have fun. I don't know what teams are looking for a catcher. Certain teams, if we try to get him through waivers, there's teams that may want to go with the young guys and might take a chance on him. It's unfortunate he had those couple years where he was injured.John Gibbons

We kind of had him, coming out of Spring Training, ahead of the group that's starting at Triple-A now. Experience-wise, they're all pretty similar. We know he's going to come up and throw strikes. You expect him to because he's always done that. It's his opportunity.
