Who is everybody using at catcher?

I’ll echo the sentiments about Bench’s new swing. I’ve always tried to use him because I’m a big Johnny bench fan, but I’ve never been able to hit with his card. I used him to grind out some PXP for the reds TA and I’ve stuck with him for a couple weeks now. I can’t imagine what a 99 Bench is going to look like.

Mitch garver solid for me. Thinking about buying this endy Rodriguez though. Looks like a solid switch hitting catcher

I was exclusively using captain JT. Then I finished CQ and started using Posada. Then switched to Salvy (who is awesome). Recently I’ve been trying Adley with Jeters tier 3 boost. Honestly I think I like JT the best. Just wish his numbers were a lil better.
Which adley are you using? The 92 overall captain?

Correct

I use Biggio as I'm not a great hitter and have hard time stringing hits together to score runs. So I stack speed so singles become triples via base stealing.

The CAP community is afraid to come out, I use my created player, Endy Rodriguez and Mitch Garver because Realmuto’s price sky rocketed and I had to sell him
-
Right now I'm using Captain Rutschman (already at P4) and have FS Endy Rodriguez on the bench.
May swap one of them out for JT if I'm ever lucky enough to pack him; unless he's crazy expensive and I might just sell him.
If it matters; this is strictly offline unless I can get one of the above to populate in a BR draft.

Been using Kensuke all year, but I think I'll give Bench a try. I love using old-timers and I'm hearing that Bench is better this year. A Reds theme-team is shaping up nicely -- there are some killers out already...

Been using Kensuke since I unlocked him on God Squad. I have had a hard time finding good RHB batters I hit well with in outfield so have Biggio leading off and playing corner outfield. Biggo would be my number 2 catcher option for sure though. Mauer always plays above his stats and I did well in ranked with his lower tier cards last year coupled with the lack of good lefty pitchers he would be my third option but Kensuke destroys baseballs so wouldn't take him out of lineup for any reason.
I have the same problem. Have you tried Witt and Rickey?
Have tried Witt. Plays above his attributes but just not someone that is more than a bench defense player for me. Haven't tried Rickey yet hoping to get him on a spin
-
Have used em all. 99 Posada just stands out for me. And I hate the Yankees. Gary Carter is up there; so is WBC Realmuto. That Alvarez card is really strong also. I am a big Bench fan but his card has not performed as well as these others.
-
WBC Salvy and Bench atm. Leaning more towards Bench, hes been surprisingly good for me this year and I don't usually use or do well with his cards.
I'd love that 99 Posada card but I'm not good or lucky enough to go 12-0 and I'm a sucker for a good Griffey card (so will probably grab him from the reward path). OF defense/reaction seems a lot more important this year and I can live with Bench behind the plate.

99 Realmuto

Assuming you didn’t choose the fielding path - Is the low blocking attribute a problem?

Not really but I value defense a lot and Realmuto is in 70K range now. Cap will retire soon and move to Florida to enjoy his money drinking beers.
