...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.
We need three catchers, like in the good 'ol Narron days.

I'm not pushing for D-Rob to start over Paul...or even over Lutz....yet.
I do think he's a useful piece and that he's only 25 and could improve. His 0.423 OBP looks nice, and I'd much rather see him hitting second than Cozart. Much less likely to GIDP with Choo on first.
I know it's another thread but that just aggravates the hell out of me. Choo on first opens the 2B hole for a LHH. Even if Robinson forces Choo at 2B with a GO, we still have excellent speed on 1B.
And Raisor would approve of that. So it's inarguable.

God that was so weird. I remember Krivsky giving bizarre quotes justifying signing Chad Moeller to a major league deal because "you need 3 catchers" in case of injury or meteor strike because without a catcher you couldn't play baseball. He acted like it was the most obvious thing in the world, despite the fact that we were the only team doing it.

Ya' know, for all the three-run homer talk, Weaver usually had a Buford or Shelby or Bumbry at the top of the line-up and Berlanger laying down bunts in the two-hole.
But Weaver was a fox, not a hedge-hog. He could drop some small-ball on you when small ball was required.
