Pena sharing time with Quintero: Royals manager Ned Yost said he's pleased with the Humberto Quintero and Brayan Pena tandem behind the plate. Quintero starts when Danny Duffy, Jonathan Sanchez and Luke Hochevar are on the hill, and Pena is behind the plate on days Bruce Chen and Luis Mendoza are starting. "The reason I like that is, when you've got an everyday catcher, you've got a chance to build some rapport with your pitcher from time to time to time," Yost said. "If you've got two guys that are going to catch I think it's more important to put them with the [same] guys so they develop that relationship. They know what worked last time, they know what didn't work and they start to think with them and it just makes it easier." (Updated 04/22/2012)

Fantasy Analysis
Pena is batting .304 with one RBI and three doubles in six games this season. Starter Salvador Perez could miss half the season recovering from a knee injury, so Pena should stick around for a few months. It's just that he's nothing more than an AL-only Fantasy option while he's handling only two of the team's five starting pitchers. (Updated 04/22/2012).
