R Campanella
Moses Fleetwood
Elston Howard
Earl Battey
Elrod Hendricks
John Roseborro
Choo-Choo Coleman
Earl WilliamsNot sure how good all these catchers were, I did not look up stats I heard of Most of them
Wonder if Roseborro was in the game if they would do a moment with Marichal ? Change the course of history.......

Race baiting liberals realized that no one is on Twatter anymore, no one watches the news, no one is falling for the racial divide psyop anymore so they come to sports games forums to try to stir stuff up.
Also a race bait thread - 1st post ever by this weirdo - waiting on someone saying that the catcher has to be the smartest guy on the field and start that nonsensical back and forth with trolls.
Not happening scumbag.- SDS boot this clown and tell him to go back to Portland
Triggered much???? Was this your reaction when people posted about the hopes of adding negro league players?
Maybe it’s you who should get booted, clown

The person who is the OP should not be berated for making this request. The is NO wrong with anyone taking pride within their own race & heritage and seeing it represented within this game, especially within the position they are least seen in. The OP is a buying customer to this game just lime all of you are & he has the right to make this request.
Now this is my official reply to the OP. Reason why there are not currently more catchers of the nationality you mentioned is because either #1) SDS has not made personal agreement with those players or their next of kin for SDS being able to use their name & likeness. #2) SDS has not even considered those players to be of those to seek out rights to.

If the black leagues are added next year, maybe we can get some more.

Just give me Satchel Paige

Definitely a risky thread here. Look dude—I've been googling and haven't found many black catchers out there, outside of the main major leagues. If you want more black catchers, you'll need to wait until such a catcher makes the big leagues and becomes an everyday player.
Do I have a problem with black catchers or black players in general? Absolutely not. It's unfortunate that they're aren't that many at present. I'm just concerned that this post could start an unpleasant or toxic discussion.
Tip: If you have feedback, you can submit to SDS directly. Why post on the forums when the option for submitting feedback is there?
Until then, quit trying to incite something.

Anyone that is calling this a race bait thread is too sensitive. The guy asked for more black catchers in the game and mentioned 2 specific names. It's not like he said they need to add a ridiculous amount of random crappy players. If you think anytime someone mentions a person of color it's a race bait thing you should reconsider who the snowflake is

Can the devs find and put some of the historic black Catchers on the market? Like Roy Campanella and Charles Johnson? Please...
Two good names there... not sure about rights to Campanella, but I would love for next year to celebrate the Negro League players. That would be so cool.

So can you tell me how many black catchers that have actually played that position? I can count on one hand. I might be wrong but there are not very many to pick from and if they don’t have the rights to them than it’s a moot point. This sounds more like a post that’s looking to start some woke debate.

Why does he have to wait while there is a million give me Jeter type threads? He mentions historic black catchers and your argument is to wait for the next black catcher? Pretty shortsighted view on your end.

Would Charles Johnso really be a tough get? Seems like he falls in the Konerko's of the world.

You have a low bar for something to be considered incitement.
I wonder if the bar is equally as low in matters of sedition. I assume not.

You can use your CAP to have Michael Jordan play catcher for you.
Carlos Delgado started his career out as a catcher I believe.
Sandoval used to have catcher eligibility, but I’m not sure if he is black enough for you?
The average 6 foot tall dude that played any sport in high school could beat down that midget Manny P.

Schwarber is black.

For those curious, THIS is what race-baiting looks like. Not the OP.

I’m being facetious since posting about why there aren’t any black catchers is a joke.
