Come on sds... it’s october. Why are there no good catchers in this game. I just can’t hit with Adley, Pudge doesn’t have enough pop. Schwarber can’t throw anyone out.
You’re using the wrong catchers. If you want pop and and arm, 2021 All-Star Realmuto (not the TA one) is what you’re looking for.

Forget to mention the high speed for a catcher. I haven’t tried Biggio yet, but liked him at catcher last year. He had a good swing and elite speed.

I'm hitting over 400 with pudge in ten games

Lol they released all the top catchers. If you can’t hit with them, that’s a YOU problem
Adley
Realmuto
Piazza
Salvador
Schwarber
PudgeEven that new Ruiz isn’t that bad
-
Adley is the best catcher in the game imo

Ding-ding-ding!

Grandal by a mile. Destroys the ball from both sides of the plate.
Yes he's slow. But I rarely even notice.
It's also ridiculous that 10+ catchers have been mentioned in this topic and not Grandal.
I swear people won't give Topps Now guys a chance.

Good call,
Most people are slow rounding the bases after hitting a 450ft bomb hahaha.
Yeah, Grandal deserves his due
Hell, even Posada is a viable backup.

This is a you problem. There are plenty of catching options. Btw, catching is intended to a defensive first position. So when selecting a catcher defensive metrics should trump offensive metrics. I can’t tell you how many game my opponents have thrown away trying to use an offensive catcher with marginal defensive metrics. Either way, complainers are going to complain regardless of what actions on their part are contributing to the problem.

3 catchers I wanna see soon.. Javy Lopez, Thurman Munson, and Mauer.

Realmuto AS card has power and throws people out. Piazza has power I hit well with both these cards oh and Perez is AS card and HRD card both have plenty of power and throws people out. What are you talking about.

For some reason I can not hit with his card, I do not get good results with his cards so I went back to Piazza.
-
Jason Kendal is a beast and one of the most underrated cards in this game.
This year's game is the best ever for that position hands down
-
Gary Sanchez had a great quote it's not me it's YOU
-
Been saying since he was released JT is the best C in the game
-
I've been using the new Adley since I got him TA4. I really like him, but agree with so many of the posts here: Posada, Realmuto (TA3 and All-Star), Salvy (TA3 and HRD), Sam Huff (TA2), Grandal (TN), Schwarber (MA) are all good... I haven't really tried Carter, Pudge, or Biggio there yet. Compared to last year, I feel like there are so many viable catching options
-
What catchers we got left? Maybe a prime or sig Posey? I agree with the mass here. We got catchers. At least 10 solid options.
-
Pudge has great contact, good power, speed and elite defense. What else could you want in a catcher?

A good swing and switch ability.
