He is as was advertised. He's a good solid catcher, he has a good quick release. He has an average to a little above average arm that's accurate, and he's a very intelligent player. I'm glad he's on our side.
I think we've seen him getting stronger and stronger and more confident in the fact his arm is 100 percent healthy. This game was probably the best of them all.
I honestly believe what we're seeing is Joel getting confidence and arm strength, ... We're just seeing him get strong and believe in that strength. He had a great changeup.

If his arm is still nagging at him, then maybe we'd rethink it, but the plan right now is to move him into the rotation.
