Okay, we are specifically talking about the catchers you would roster in an NFBC 50-round Draft & Hold league. Remember that the 50 players you draft are all you have for the entire 2014 season – there are no free agent pickups.
So which ones do you take and how many do you roster?
If you read “Don’t Get CAUGHT Short” you know my thoughts on the subject. But obviously, some have other opinions. Read the following and then tell me yours.
Here are the rostered catchers from a recent Draft & Hold league:
Team 1 - Brian McCann & John Jaso
|
Team 2 - Wilson Ramos, Dioner Navarro, A.J. Ellis & Josmil Pinto
|
Team 3 - Tyler Flowers, Brayan Pena, Steve Clevenger, Steven Vogt, Francisco Cervelli & Jesus Montero
|
Team 4 - Yadier Molina, Carlos Ruiz, Kurt Suzuki, Erik Kratz & Jose Molina

So which team do you think will get the best hitting contributions from their catchers?
Are there any teams that will not be able to compete all year with their catchers? {jcomments on}
