If you don't find any of the current catchers in the game good then you will never find one, no matter who they add
“No matter who they add”.. There are some good guys to use for sure. But I think a lot would find Joe Mauer, Javy Lopez, and Victor Martinez to be welcomed additions. I’d like to even see a Thurman Munson and Roy Campanella too.

Sure, they could add all those guys. That doesn't mean they will be better options than we already have. The only Catcher in the history of baseball that would be far and away more of an all around better catcher option than what we already have is Josh Gibson, and thats highly dependent on SDS getting the Negro League players' rights(which I would love to see for what its worth)

I’ll second that! One of the very few actual baseball cards I own is his 71 Topps. It is agreed on by many in the business (which I am not in) to have the best picture on it. I know he doesn’t have the stats of some other catchers, but his life was tragically cut short when he still had plenty of good years ahead of him. He played harder than many.

Javy Lopez would be such a fun card to use

Yeah I agree. That 2003 season was nasty!

Huge fan of the new Keibert Ruiz, numbers aren’t insane by any means. Feel like his swing and being a switch hitter makes him play well above his rating

Is he in the RIB pack? I am not at my console.

Catcher has never been deeper. And off the top of my head we still have Posey, Bench, and Jimmie Foxx. I'm thinking there are more I'm missing also.
