Johan Santana on Mike Pelfrey, Oliver Perez, and John Maine

On Nydailynews.com Johan Santana said things about other starting pitchers Mike Pelfrey, Oliver Perez, and John Maine.

OLIVER PEREZ
I saw a different Ollie (at minicamp two weeks ago) He still needs to be Ollie Perez, the guy who has fun, but seeing him very positive, very challenging now, I'm expecting a lot from him. His knee is healthy, too. People don't know there were points last year were he wasn't even able to walk on it.

MIKE PELFREY
He's got the stuff to be great. Man if I had his stuff oh my God. That sinker he throws at 95 it's unbelievable. It's a matter of consistency and being mature, and I really believe he's a more mature pitcher after he felt like he had to step in for me (late) last season.

JOHN MAINE
Being pain-free makes all the difference. That thing in his shoulder, he couldn't pitch with it. He's got the stuff and he's got the mentality, and now he's healthy again.
