Using Foxx at catcher?
-
Anyone had any success using him at catcher? Only a few stars from 300 and not sure if to get him and put at catcher over Biggio? I have played against people using him at catcher and he’s kind of sketchy. Is it worth just getting the most expensive boss and selling?
-
I have him at catcher because I don't have anywhere else to play him, but he's going to let a lot of balls in the dirt go by him, that's just a reality you have to put up with to have the bat in the lineup.

I started him as catcher yesterday. He let a shocking amount of balls past him. That being said, his bat is the real deal and is likely to make up for the occasional passed ball.

Agreed sir!! Top 5 right handed bat in the game! He does fine behind the plate.

Yea that defense neutralizes his bat for me. I pitch with a lot of finesse guys and balls thrown at the dirt and he just sits there like a sofa. I thought Posada D was bad. [censored]. I love seeing him on the other team. I steal with 60 speed guys lol

Small sample size but he’s been just fine in a couple games in the event

Is it an occasional or shocking amount?..

Good point on my choice of words. I think it was more than I expected - thus the shock - but it can be ameliorated by changing my pitching style, long term.

I have changed my position on Foxx.. As my weaknes is breaking balls in the dirt... I say.. Foxx at catcher all day, he's probably th ebest option for everyone to put behind the plate..

Defense at catcher is the most overrated thing in this game. Hitting >>> Defense from the catching position.

I have done okay with him at catcher. I keep Ivan Rodriquez on bench for defense later in game if needed and moving foxx to 1b. I advise keeping a defensive catcher on the bench in case you get someone who steals all the time.

Cool. I have Pudge and was thinking of potentially making the same move so great to hear someone else is having success with that already. Appreciate it.

Well, no BS, in trying a bunt cheese team against a guy using him... he’s thrown out Buxton and Mondesi trying to steal 2nd. No BS.
Stats don’t matter.

I had a guy using Foxx throw out Mondesi and mantle in my last game... I found it pretty interesting. His arm should be exploitable.
