It can't just be the position, although catcher is definitely more exposed, might have to worry about the safety equipment and the rehab/recovery too.

Wasn't he hit sliding into 2nd or something crazy? How is Collins getting his? Tipped balls behind the plate? There is way more risk of a concussion at catcher than 1B or DH.

After moving to 1B he got his most serious ones.
