A great catcher at calling games with.....say.....the Nationals pitching staff is not going to do much.

You give me the worst catcher ever with Greg Maddux or Randy Johnson on the mound, and I'll take the pitcher.

They gotta execute. if they don't, the catcher doesn't get to catch the ball.

- In no world ever is the catcher more important than the pitcher. - Will Hunting Feb 26, 14:14 2
  - Never said he was. I think they're actually both important. -- nm - the liioulu with pretty soft yarn Feb 26, 14:15 1
    - Yes...you did. Me: Pitcher is the only position close to goalie importance. You. Catcher might be closer. - Will Hunting Feb 26, 14:17
