Would you classify Piazza as a catcher? He still plays about half his games behind the plateJune 13, 2004 at 02:39AM View BBCode
yes, he is a catcher, even though he can't throw anyone out. he plays there and takes the strain of playing there most days. he is ok at blocking pass balls/wild pitches, and Mets pitchers ERA is a full run lower with him catching than with the other catchers used (whoever it is).June 13, 2004 at 03:09AM View BBCode
Posada should start and Pudge should be the backup. Jorge has put up great offensive numbers and has played some very good defense. He threw out a runner from his knees to seal a win a couple days ago against the Rockies and is very good at blocking the plate. He isnt as good at throwing guys out as Pudge is but he is very good. Pudge has played great D and has put up good offensive numbers (just not as good as Jorge's) so he deserves to make it too.June 13, 2004 at 10:52PM View BBCode
Victor Martinez! Look at those RBI's. He should be classified as Rookie (however not). He might become the greatest hitting catcher to play the game.June 14, 2004 at 12:14AM View BBCode
Viva Victor! Mauer who?June 14, 2004 at 12:30AM View BBCode
I like Victor alot. He is a good young catcher. Best offensive catcher ever? Probably not.June 14, 2004 at 12:47AM View BBCode
I think he is in the top 3 of the above list, with Pudge and Jorge, but I think his numbers are better than Javy and Varitek.June 14, 2004 at 08:02PM View BBCode
Soon to be best ever. He won a Single A batting title in his first year and a Double A title in year 2. The reason he didn't win Triple A last year is because he spent to much time in the majors.June 14, 2004 at 08:13PM View BBCode
