I agree, its rare to see a catcher come up with as little experience as Posey.

I read a scouting report which questioned whether he has the experience to catch a flamethrower like Timmy yet. However another hot catching prospect Matt Wieters of the Orioles was called up after only 1 year and 2 months in the minors, and they were smart to platoon him with Greg Zaun in the beginning. I would be ok if they decide to platoon him with a good veteran catcher like Pudge Rodriquez.

    - That would make a lot of sense. Particularly if they could get Rodriquez - starburst 2009-12-05 18:54:10 (148 views)
      - I think that's the plan. Giants aren't willing to give any catcher more than a 1 yr deal - glass half empty 2009-12-05 20:06:49 (136 views)
