Player Notes

September 28, 2008
Heading into the season finale, manager Trey Hillman is uncertain who will be the Royals' starting catcher in 2009 between Miguel Olivo and John Buck, according to the KC Star. Hillman said, "Its just something were going to have to continue to massage through in the off-season, after we have a little time to decompress and evaluate some things. Miggy has done a great job of continuing to improve his game management. Bucks throwing has gotten better. His release times have improved, So I actually see improvement from both of them in the areas that they needed to improve."

September 7, 2008
Olivo should see more playing time at catcher than John Buck for the rest of the season, according to the Kansas City Star.

August 31, 2008
Catcher Miguel Olivo and manager Trey Hillman have kissed and made up. "We talked like 30 minutes (on Saturday)," Olivo informs the Kansas City Star. "We talked man to man. It was good. Its over." Olivo recently vented about his playing time this season and vowed he would not return to Kansas City.

August 29, 2008
Catcher Miguel Olivo is not happy with Royals manager Trey Hillman and the amount of playing time he has seen, and said he will not be back with the team next year, as his contract includes a mutual option, according to the Kansas City Star. Asked if he'd be back for 2009, Olivo bluntly said, "Hell no."

August 14, 2008
Miguel Olivo's suspension was reduced from five games to four, and he began serving the penalty Thursday against the White Sox, according to the AP. Olivo was fined and suspended after charging the mound during the Royals 14-3 win over Chicago on August 3, and he said, "I knew Id get suspended. Im not happy at all."
