mmmmmbeeer Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 I think that we need Sandy to catch as often as he can. He's a proven veteran that I think this team looks up to. He's not a great hitter but he's not scared in the clutch like Olivo. I think he definitely calls a better game and the team looks sharper when he's on the field. If I'm a pitcher who's struggling a bit, I'd much rather have a 16yr(?) veteran catcher come out and calm me down than a rookie. I've just always looked at the catcher as like the team captain, the guy in the trenches getting the hell beat out of him every night for the sake of the TEAM. Perhaps this came from watching Pudge back in the day, the Commander. I'd just like to see our present-day Commander on the field as much as possible.

southsider2k5 Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Sandy would break down in a heart beat if he played everyday. Like I have been saying all year they need to make it so that Sandy catches 3 a week with Miguel catching 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
