I kinda like our catcher...He should be around a few more years -- nm - amoxy Jul 18, 11:18
it happens when you compare one hitter to another hitter without taking position into account. - groiny Jul 18, 11:02 18
- He's not been the guy I expected. He doesn't hit consistently. He goes off for three days and then nothing for a week. - Krusty Jul 18, 11:06 17
  - Catchers, in general, just aren't worth free agent money. They play 80% of the games, and are lauded when they can hit nearly as well as a 1B or OF. -- (edited) - Inigo Jul 18, 11:12 1
    - Catchers are so important that it's worth paying for them if you're going to get a guy that is both - Krusty Jul 18, 11:23
  - His OPS+ the last two years is 107/111. And he's a solid defender, too. - David Jul 18, 11:08 9
    - And his average is atrocious. He still has power but I'll say it again, he's inconsistent. -- nm - Krusty Jul 18, 11:09 8
      - He took time to adjust to the AL, but his OBP is up from .320 last year to .340 this year. Batting average, as usual, misses the point. - David Jul 18, 11:14 7
        
        I watch most games and my feeling is disappointment. His numbers could be fine to some but what I see - Krusty Jul 18, 11:19 6
        
        Okay, now I -might- forgive you in two months. - David Jul 18, 11:21 5
        
        I really hate disappointing you. - Krusty Jul 18, 11:25 4

        I wanted to. I usually love catchers. They're tough guys that tend to be leaders of their team. -- (edited) - Krusty Jul 18, 11:33 2
        
        It's harder to do that in your 30s without the HGH. -- nm - David Jul 18, 11:40 1
        
        Ha! True. -- nm - Krusty Jul 18, 11:49
  - the 2 catchers on my team are hitting about .220 between them with 4 homers. -- nm - groiny Jul 18, 11:07 4
    - At least one is hurt now! -- nm - spamlet Jul 18, 11:10
    - Which is an embarrassment to the game. Major league players shouldn't hit their weight. -- nm - Krusty Jul 18, 11:09 2
      - I *wish* Sano would hit his weight. -- nm - ÜMLaut Jul 18, 11:09 1
        
        Sano is why I'm less than enthusiastic about the Kevin Maitan signing. - David Jul 18, 11:15
