Matt Treanor Quotations

You can ask me about my off-season and you can ask me about my wife but just don't ask me about my performance today.

It would have been nice to give Joe his first win here. We were definitely in a position to do it.

They say the most important pitch is strike one. He struggled with strikes early in the count and got behind.

It's just doing it. Taking care of it. Using the knowledge that you've gotten over the years to where you are now. That's what is going to continue you through your baseball career. That's how guys win jobs. That's how guys make big contracts. That's playing the game. For me, it's not about doing anything different than you have in the past. It's about playing the game, realizing what's going on. Doing it. Taking care of it. Executing.

I tried to get lucky and keep the ball in front. I didn't make the play, but it is definitely a make-able play.

For me, it's just incentive for us to surprise some people.... We're going to have to scrap and fight and show up to the party ready to play.

It's probably the most I've ever experienced, not just with the Marlins but since I've been playing. Having someone who's going to work with you in between games or on an everyday basis is going to be very good because it'll keep you sharp on all your skills.

No matter what another player does, you're not supposed to call him on it. I'm not saying that's always right, because sometimes people deserve to be called out for their actions. But to do so risks your place in the game, and very few of us want to do that.
